Question:
2.You are meeting with the branch manager of an insurance firm. This is a large insurance firm that employs fifty insurance brokers. They have just changed over from their old paper methods of filing insurance claims and contracts to using computers on a LAN. The LAN is composed of 30 workstations and one file server. All data is stored on the file server which has a 5GB drive. Nothing of importance is stored on the workstations. Downtime should be kept to a 2 hour maximum, because brokers can still sell insurance using the software on their PCs, but if the server is down, they cannot retrieve any client information. This insurance company is now very interested in designing a backup strategy and possibly installing some form of fault tolerance for the branch. Your job is to provide a backup solution, whether the company should implement a full backup, incremental backup or differential backup, and give a general cost analysis of different security measures they should take to secure their data.
