An e-commerce environment has multiple layers of servers that handle payments and user orders. The organization wants to record unusual attempts from all nodes in one place and keep that information readily available for two years. Which strategy meets these requirements?
Gather events from the primary database and store them with daily backups
Forward records to a consolidated repository that enforces retention standards for older entries
Use ephemeral data sources and run a daily script to capture snapshots
Keep records on each server and rotate them monthly without external storage
Forwarding data from servers to a consolidated repository with a defined retention plan ensures a single location to review suspicious events and store older records for audits. Other answers lose data when using ephemeral sources or rely on local server-specific storage without a consistent retention schedule.
