If the main device fails, how does a backup kept in a separate location help?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It helps recover information
A separate backup preserves another copy of important data if the main computer is damaged, lost, stolen, or affected by malware. The user can restore the files to a repaired or replacement device. Backups should be made regularly and protected from unauthorised access; a backup is not intended to change a mouse, printer, or sound settings.
