Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is best defined as:
AMaximum acceptable data loss in a disaster (the data window)
BMaximum acceptable time to restore service after a disaster
CTime between two automated backups (the backup cadence)
DTime to detect a disaster (mean time to detect)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Maximum acceptable time to restore service after a disaster
RTO = max acceptable DOWNTIME (how fast you must restore service).
RPO = max acceptable DATA LOSS (how far back the backup is).
RTO of 1 hour means service must be back within 1 hour of an outage.
