Explanation
Self-encrypting drives (SEDs) automatically encrypt all data at rest using hardware-level encryption built into the drive controller, requiring no user interaction or software configuration after initial setup. This makes them ideal for securing remote user data with minimal overhead. Updating firewall rules (B) protects network perimeter traffic, not stored data. BIOS passwords (C) restrict boot access but do not encrypt data on the drive. Removing physical ROM drives (D) limits boot media but provides no data encryption.
