2.4 Exercise: Creating Security Audit and System Restoration Guides
2.4 Exercise: Creating Security Audit and System Restoration Guides
Based on the given scenario, I have structured my answers to your guide questions for ease of reference.
Consider the following for a computer that encounters a disk drive failure or some other error that requires restoration:
2.4 Exercise: Creating Security Audit and System Restoration Guides
1. The time of loss was not indicated in the question; however, since the scheduled backup falls every night at 1:00 a.m., the amount of data modified between the last backup and time of failure
is presumably one working day, considering the operating hours are 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
2. Since the workstation encountered a complex drive problem, it should be replaced with a new one with the operating system installed from the base image of Always Fresh standard workstations. After this process, the workstation is now usable.
3. Fix the current data loss after the workstation has installed the fresh copy of the standard operating system for Always fresh workstations; file restoration comes next. Using the Backup and Restore utility in the Windows workstation, locate the recent backup and perform a complete
restoration.
4. The recommended step to mitigate future risks is that the Always Fresh system administrator should deploy a Folder Redirection Policy to all workstations in the network. This method will ensure data from the workstations are stored in centralized storage and have a regular backup. So
that when a failure situation arises, all relevant data are accessible from the server and ready for restoration anytime.
Procedure guide that describes the necessary steps for recovering a desktop workstation computer. Fill in the details for each of the following steps:
