Oracle Database Administration II — Question 150

Which two are true about backup encryption? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Keystore-based encryption is the default mode for RMAN backup encryption
• B. Vendor-specific media management software can be used for making encrypted RMAN backups to media
• C. Image copies can be encrypted
• D. Backup encryption can be enabled selectively for specific tablespaces
• E. The BACKUP BACKUPSET command can encrypt and decrypt backup sets
• F. The Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) keystore is backed up using RMAN

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Option A is correct because RMAN indeed uses keystore-based encryption as its default mode. Option D is also correct since backup encryption can be selectively enabled for specific tablespaces. The other options, while they may contain some truth, do not directly address the question about backup encryption's default methods or selective capabilities.
