CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 337
A company is reviewing options for its current disaster recovery plan and potential changes to it. The security team will not allow customer data to egress to non- company equipment, and the company has requested recovery in the shortest possible time. Which of the following will BEST meet these goals?
Answer options
- A. A warm site
- B. A hot site
- C. Cloud recovery
- D. A cold site
Correct answer: B
Explanation
A hot site offers real-time data replication and immediate availability of resources, ensuring the fastest recovery time while keeping data within company-controlled infrastructure. A warm site, while faster than a cold site, would still require additional setup time, and cloud recovery options may involve external data handling, which conflicts with the security team's stipulations. A cold site would take the longest to become operational and is not suitable for quick recovery needs.
