Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
‘Revolving backups’ refer to:
A
the last several backups are kept.
B
only files that have been changed since the last backup.
C
backup stored on a cloud.
D
a facility whereby a computing system can be installed to begin immediate backup operations.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What is an incremental backup? Incremental backups also back up only the changed data, but they only back up the data that has changed since the last backup-be it a full or incremental backup.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are mainly three types of backup: full, differential, and incremental.

Detailed explanation-3: -You should store backup copies of your files somewhere separate from your computer-on an external hard disk, for example. That way, if the computer breaks, or is lost or is stolen, the backup will still be intact. For maximum security, you shouldn’t keep the backup in the same building as your computer.

Detailed explanation-4: -A differential backup collects data that has changed or been created since the last full (normal) or incremental backup, but it does not clear the archive bit on the file.
