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 a separate recovery copy. If both the original data and its backup are stored on the same stolen device, one theft can remove both copies at once. Important data should also be backed up on a separate drive, trusted cloud location, or other protected place, with access secured appropriately.
