CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 386

A technician needs to back up a small business’s entire network that includes ten workstations. Which of the following methods should the technician use to safely and securely back up the business’s network?

Answer options

• A. Cloud storage
• B. RAID
• C. Tape drive
• D. Local backups

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Cloud storage is ideal for backing up a network as it provides secure, off-site storage that can be easily accessed and managed. RAID, while useful for redundancy, does not serve as a backup method. Tape drives are less common today and can be cumbersome to manage. Local backups, while accessible, risk data loss in case of physical damage to the premises.
