The main device was stolen and the backup was also 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 independent way to recover data. If the original and its backup are stored on the same stolen device, one event can remove both copies. Keeping another copy on a separate device or secure location, and testing it periodically, gives much better protection against loss.
