System Administration and IT Infrastructure Services: Data Recovery and Backups WK 5 How can you recover from an unexpected data loss event? Check all that apply Recover data from damaged devices; If a hard drive or device becomes damaged or fails, you can attempt to recover data using specialized software. If data becomes corrupt or gets deleted, you can also restore the data from backup. restore data from backups Where is it best to store backups, physically? across multiple locations; backups should be stored in multiple physical locations to reduce the risk of a catastrophe causing you to lose your backups.

This makes it a good option for archiving old data that won't be needed often. Why is it important to test backups and restoration procedures? Check all that apply. to ensure backups work and data can be restored from them to ensure that relevant data is included in the backups; It's super important to test backups and restore procedures to ensure that they actually work! Backup archives could be corrupt or inconsistent, preventing proper restoration. Restore procedures are just as important to test, to ensure that critical data can be extracted from backups if a disaster strikes. Disaster testing can also reveal any gaps in your backup coverage without risking real-world data loss. Which of the following backup types are most space-efficient? Incremental backups; Incremental backups are the most efficient. While they start with a full backup, on subsequent runs, they only backup the parts of files that have changed since the last run.
