Haha, a warm site as a recovery strategy? That's like using a lukewarm rag to put out a fire. Not very effective if you ask me.

But what about the full backup only being performed once a week? That could also be a major concern for data loss.

I agree with Hildred. Without a defined RPO, it's hard to ensure data integrity during a disaster recovery operation.

I agree, D definitely seems like the most critical issue. Backups need to be more frequent to ensure minimal data loss.

D) A full backup was only performed once a week seems like the biggest concern here. That could lead to a lot of data loss.

I think the greatest concern should be the recovery point objective not being defined.
