If the main device is stolen and the backup was on the same device, what is the main problem?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Both original and backup may be lost
A backup is useful only when it provides an additional copy that can survive loss or damage to the original device. If both the original file and its backup are stored on the stolen device, theft can remove both copies at once. Keeping another copy on a separate drive or secure cloud location gives genuine protection against device loss.
