How does edge computing analyze sensitive data in the context of privacy control?

The correct answer is A. locally instead of sending the data to the cloud for analysis. Edge computing processes and analyzes data locally - on the edge device or nearby edge nodes - rather than transmitting it to a centralized cloud. This is the core privacy benefit of edge computing: sensitive data (e.g., medical records, video footage, financial transactions)…

Explanation

Edge computing processes and analyzes data locally - on the edge device or nearby edge nodes - rather than transmitting it to a centralized cloud. This is the core privacy benefit of edge computing: sensitive data (e.g., medical records, video footage, financial transactions) never leaves the local environment, reducing exposure risk. Data is not sent to the cloud for analysis, which rules out options C and D.
