A company is planning a disaster recovery site and needs to ensure that a single natural disaster would not result in the complete loss of regulated backup data. Which of the following should the company consider?
Answer: A
Geographic dispersion is the practice of having backup data stored in different locations that are far enough apart to minimize the risk of a single natural disaster affecting both sites. This ensures that the company can recover its regulated data in case of a disaster at the primary site. Platform diversity, hot site, and load balancing are not directly related to the protection of backup data from natural disasters.Reference:CompTIA Security+ Study Guide: Exam SY0-701, 9th Edition, page 449;Disaster Recovery Planning: Geographic Diversity
Natural Disaster Protection: By storing backup data in geographically dispersed locations, the company ensures that a natural disaster in one region does not affect the backup data in another region.
Regulatory Compliance: Many regulations require companies to have disaster recovery strategies that protect data integrity and availability, which geographic dispersion effectively addresses. Geographic dispersion directly addresses the risk of complete data loss due to a natural disaster by ensuring that data is stored in multiple locations, making it the most appropriate solution for this scenario
