VerifiedInformation Security Controls and Policies

The company has put a backup plan in place. James, the company’s network administrator, takes a full backup of the data whenever a backup is initiated. Alex, a senior security manager, discusses using a differential backup with James and asks him to implement it after a full data backup is complete.

What reason(s) does Alex have for recommending that James use a differential backup?
