Question 156

While conducting audit procedures at the organization's data center, an internal auditor noticed the following:

- Backup media was located on data center shelves.

- Backup media was organized by date.

- Backup schedule was one week in duration.

- The system administrator was able to present restore logs.

Which of the following is reasonable for the internal auditor to conclude?

    Correct Answer: A

    Backup media is not properly stored, as the storage facility should be off-site. Keeping backup media on data center shelves suggests a potential risk if the data center itself is compromised by disasters such as fires or floods. Best practices recommend that backups be stored in a separate, off-site location to mitigate this risk.
