Joe’s Recovery Point Objective (RPO) is set to 24 hours. What does this mean?
  1. Joe's people must be in the office performing the process 24 hours after a disaster or disruption.
  2. Joe has 24 hours to decide what to do in event of an emergency.
  3. No more than 24 hours of data can be lost.
  4. All data related to the process must be recovered within 24 hours.
  5. Joe's process must be restored after 24 hours.
Explanation
Answer: C. Recovery Point Objective (RPO) describes the acceptable amount of data loss measured in time.

Key Takeaway: Typically, the smaller the RPO, the greater the cost to implement the backup system. For instance, a RPO of zero means that you must mirror the system. A RPO of 24 hours means you might do nightly backup. A manager must carefully assess what is an appropriate RPO for a specific system.
