A multinational company must retain UCS backups for 10 years to meet legal requirements. The backups contain configuration data that is subject to data residency rules, requiring the data to remain within the country of origin. The company has offices in multiple countries and uses a global cloud provider. Which storage approach best satisfies both the retention period and the data residency requirement?

Store backups on-premises in the company's headquarters only

Store backups in the cloud region corresponding to each country's data residency requirement, with appropriate retention policies

Use a single global cloud provider and rely on encryption to satisfy data residency

Store all backups in a single cloud region that offers the lowest cost

Which practice is recommended for managing multiple UCS backup files over time?

Keeping only the most recent backup

Using versioning to retain multiple backups

Overwriting the previous backup with each new one

Storing all backups in the same directory without labels

Which storage media is generally considered suitable for long-term UCS backup retention?

Cloud object storage with versioning and redundancy

A USB flash drive kept on an administrator's desk

A network share with limited redundancy

An administrator stores UCS backups on an external drive that is kept in a safe. The drive is used for a 5-year retention period. After two years, the administrator wants to confirm the backups are still valid. The drive is connected to a workstation that has no internet access. Which method can the administrator use to verify the integrity of the UCS files?

Open each UCS file in a text editor and look for obvious errors

Recompute the checksum of each UCS file and compare it to the checksum recorded when the backup was created

Copy the files to a new drive and assume they are valid if the copy completes

Compare the current file size to the size recorded at backup time
