Question
An organization that performs real-time financial processing is implementing a new backup solution. Given the following business requirements:
- The backup solution must reduce the risk of potential backup
compromise.
- The backup solution must be resilient to a ransomware attack.

integrity. Multiple copies of production data must be maintained. Which of the following backup strategies best meets these requirements?
Options
- ACreating a secondary, immutable database and adding live data on a continuous basis
- BUtilizing two connected storage arrays and ensuring the arrays constantly sync
- CEnabling remote journaling on the databases to ensure real-time transactions are mirrored
- DSetting up anti-tampering on the databases to ensure data cannot be changed unintentionally

Explanation
Creating a secondary, immutable database and adding live data continuously best meets the requirements because immutability ensures backup data cannot be altered or compromised, including during ransomware attacks. This approach preserves data integrity and maintains multiple copies, aligning with the priority on data integrity over restore speed.
