The ABC company runs two shifts, from 8:00 am to midnight. Backups and system maintenance are performed between midnight and 8:00 am. For each of the following-scenarios, determine whether the company's current backup procedures enable it to meet its recovery objective, and explain why.

a. Scenario 1:

recovery point objective = 24 hours

daily backups at 3:00 am, process takes 2 hours.

copy of backup tapes picked up daily at 8:00 am for storage off site.

b. scenario 2: company makes daily incremental backups Monday through Friday at 3:00am each night. Company makes full backup weekly, on Saturdays at 1:00 pm.

recovery time objective = 2hours

time to do full backup = 3hours

time to restore from full backup = 1hours

time to make incremental daily backup = 1 hour

time to restore each incremental daily backup = 30mins.

c. scenario 3: company makes daily differential backups Monday through Friday at 3:00am each night. Company makes full backup weekly, on Saturdays, at 1:00pm.

recovery time objective = 6hours

time to do full backup = 4hours

time to restore from full backup = 3hours

time to do differential daily backups = 1 hours on Monday, increasing by 30 mins each successive day

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