For each of the following scenarios, determine whether the company's current backup procedures enable it to meet its recovery objectives, and explain why:

a. Scenario 1:

• Recovery point objective = 24 hours

• Daily backups at 3:00 A.M., process takes 2 hours

• Copy of backup tapes picked up daily at 8:00 A.m. for storage off-site

b. Scenario 2: Company makes daily incremental backups Monday through Saturday at 7:00 P.M. each night. Company makes full backup weekly, on Sunday at 1:00 P.M.

• Recovery time objective = 2 hours

• Time to do full backup = 3 hours

• Time to restore from full backup =1 hour

• Time to make incremental daily backup = 1 hour

• Time to restore each incremental daily backup = 30 minutes

c. Scenario 3: Company makes daily differential backups Monday through Friday at 8:00 P.M. each night. Company makes full backup weekly, on Saturdays, at 8:00 A.m.

• Recovery time objective = 6 hours

• Time to do full backup = 4 hours

• Time to restore from full backup = 3 hours

• Time to do differential daily backups = 1 hour on Monday, increasing by 30 min. utes each successive day

• Time to restore differential daily backup = 30 minutes for Monday, increasing by 15 minutes each successive day
