An organization wants to preserve copies of mission-critical files in a distinct location away from its primary data center. They want these copies available if the main site experiences a severe outage. Which solution best meets this requirement?
Encrypt backup data but keep it in the main storage area
Retain duplicates within the same server cluster for faster access
Store data at a remote facility that replicates to another region
Keep backups on a shared network drive in the same building
Storing data at a remote facility with replication to another region provides geographical separation. It safeguards important files from local disasters and disruptions at the primary site, because the information resides in a completely different location. Retaining separate copies on the same cluster or on a shared drive in the same building keeps data vulnerable to the same risks. Encrypting files in the original environment does not address the need to place the backups away from the main site.
