In which scenario is an offsite tape backup system recommended?

Answer options

• A. Cold storage
• B. Disaster recovery
• C. Disk to tape copying
• D. Individual file recoveries

Correct answer: A

Explanation

An offsite tape backup system is recommended for cold storage because it provides a secure method to store data that is not frequently accessed, ensuring that it is protected from local disasters. The other options, such as disaster recovery and individual file recoveries, typically require more immediate access to data, which offsite tape storage does not facilitate effectively.
