Backup verification data: Data that is used to verify the integrity and accuracy of a backup copy. It is used in cybersecurity to ensure that a backup copy can be used to restore an organization’s data in case of a disaster or data loss. Examples include checksum values for each file in a backup, timestamps for each file in a backup, and metadata for each file in a backup.
