Of course good answer...Backup can be preventive or corrective...In case of system issue the backup becomes corrective.

Corrective is done after an incident, "In case of" implies that an incident has not happened

"A corrective control is used after an attack. A good example is a backup system that can restore data that was damaged during an intrusion. Another example is a patch management system that acts to eliminate the vulnerability exploited during the attack". "In case of" implies that an attack has not happened, so bad
