Across

1. A type of data storage device that uses light to read and write data to a disk or other storage medium.

2. Type of storage that uses magnetic fields to write and read data on a disk or tape.

3. The process of backing up data to the cloud, providing a secure and cost-effective alternative to traditional backup methods.

4. The process of verifying the integrity and completeness of backup data to ensure its reliability for restoration purposes.

5. The regularity of performing backups is determined by factors such as the quantity and importance of the data being backed up.

6. The ability to do work or produce power.

7. The capacity of an optical storage device to bounce back light. A greater capacity leads to enhanced accuracy in reading data.

8. The process of backing up data to physical storage devices that are disconnected from the network.

9. A type of data storage in which data is stored on remote servers accessed through the internet.

10. Rules that govern the exchange of data between networks, ensuring that only authorized users have access to sensitive information.

11. A complete backup is a data backup method that duplicates all the information stored on a system at a specific moment. It typically takes longer and occupies more storage capacity compared to incremental backups, but

12. The process that involves restoring data and systems to a functional state following a catastrophic event, such as a natural disaster or cyber attack.

Down

13. A device that reads and writes data to optical storage devices such as CDs, DVDs, and Blu-Ray disks.

14. A type of non-volatile memory that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed.

15. A combination of public and private cloud infrastructures, providing a balance of security and scalability.

16. The deliberate or accidental eradication of information, resulting from mistakes made by individuals, malfunctioning hardware, or malicious software.

17. A backup process that records the entire state of a virtual machine, including its data, configuration settings, and system state.
