ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your company hosts a mission-critical Linux application on an IaaS VM. Management requires an RPO of 15 minutes, application-consistent backups without shutting the VM down, minimal cloud egress costs, and the ability to restore individual files. Which backup design satisfies all requirements?

  • Schedule nightly full image snapshots of the VM's virtual disk using the provider's snapshot service.

  • Deploy an in-guest backup agent that performs continuous changed-block incremental backups to object storage in the same region, creating application-consistent restore points every 15 minutes.

  • Enable hypervisor-level crash-consistent snapshots every 15 minutes and replicate them to a secondary region for redundancy.

  • Run a cron-based rsync script that copies the /var directory to an on-premises NAS over a site-to-site VPN.
