[All CISM Questions]

Which type of backup BEST enables an organization to recover data after a ransomware attack?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Comprehensive and Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation:

Recovering from ransomware requires backups that are unaffected by the ransomware attack. Here's why offline backups are most effective:

A . Online backup: These are connected to the network and may also be compromised during an attack.

B . Incremental backup: While efficient, incremental backups rely on previous backups and are typically stored online, making them vulnerable to ransomware.

C . Differential backup: Similar to incremental backups, these are not immune if stored online or on compromised systems.

D . Offline backup: This is the BEST choice as offline backups are stored in a location that is not connected to the network, preventing ransomware from encrypting them.

But offline backup is not connected to the network, so it's less likely to be affected by ransomware.

Definitely offline backup. Ransomware can't encrypt what's not connected to the network!
