Confidential data stored on a laptop is BEST protected by:

A. storage on optical disks.

B. logon ID and password.

C. data encryption.

D. physical locks.

Answer Posted / guest

Answer: C

The best protection for confidential data stored on a laptop
is data encryption. Data, if not encrypted, would be
accessible to anyone who has access to the disks. Logon ID
and password are not the best protection because a
stand-alone laptop, depending on the operating system, may
not need an ID and password to begin a session, and it is
relatively easy to bypass security controls on laptops to
gain access to the operating system. Physical locks prevent
physical theft only.
