please select all that apply.
a) back-up to another machine or server
b) store confidential data on personal thumb drive or external hard drive
c) back-up on local machine
d) follow organizational rules for file management

Explanation:

• Backing up data to another machine or server ensures data is preserved if the primary system fails, which is a secure practice.
• Storing confidential data on personal portable devices like thumb drives risks loss, theft, or unauthorized access, so this is not a secure practice.
• Backing up only on the local machine means data is lost if the machine fails, so this is not a secure practice.
• Following organizational file management rules ensures compliance with established security protocols for data storage.

Answer:

A) Back-up to another machine or server
D) Follow organizational rules for file management
