CompTIA Server+ SK0-005 Practice Question
A hospital backs up its electronic health-record (EHR) database to LTO-8 tapes each night and ships the cartridges to a secure off-site vault using a third-party courier. Compliance auditors are concerned about the risk of unauthorized data disclosure if a tape is lost or stolen during transport. Which of the following controls BEST mitigates this risk while keeping the existing backup workflow intact?
Upgrade the backup server to RAID-6 to tolerate two simultaneous disk failures.
Replace the courier service with overnight air shipping to reduce transit time.
Enable hardware-based AES-256 encryption on the tape drive and manage the keys centrally.
Change the job to incremental backups so each tape holds less data.
