Why each option
The information owner's tasks in classification schemes include initial determination of classification level, periodic review and adjustment, and delegating safeguard duties.
The information owner is ultimately responsible for making the original determination of the classification level required for their information based on its sensitivity and impact.
Performing data restoration from backups is a technical task typically carried out by data custodians or IT operations personnel, not the information owner.
Information owners must periodically review the assigned classification levels to ensure they remain appropriate as business needs or data context changes.
While the owner is accountable for data protection, they delegate the operational and technical duties of safeguarding the data to designated custodians.
