Topic: Implement backup and recovery
Difficulty: medium
Contoso Ltd has recently experienced a data breach and needs to restore data from an Azure Backup Vault. However, they have accidentally deleted the backup data before the restoration process could begin. What is the best course of action to recover the deleted data, and what feature of Azure Backup Vault enables this recovery?
Answer Options
A
Manually recreate the deleted backups from the original source.
B
Enable soft delete on the Azure Backup Vault and restore the deleted backups within the retention period.
C
Use Azure Recovery Services Vault to restore the deleted backups.
D
Contact Microsoft support to manually recover the deleted backups.
Correct Answer
B: Enable soft delete on the Azure Backup Vault and restore the deleted backups within the retention period.
Explanation
The correct answer is B. Soft delete in Azure Backup Vault allows for the recovery of deleted backups within a certain period, typically 7 days. Option A is incorrect because it suggests using a different feature or service that does not exist in Azure Backup Vault. Option C is incorrect as it does not address the use of soft delete. Option D is incorrect because it does not mention the use of soft delete and instead suggests a manual process which may not be available.
