Explanation

BitLocker is Microsoft's built-in full-disk encryption feature available on Windows Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions. It encrypts the entire drive to protect data if the device is lost or stolen, and integrates with the TPM chip for secure key storage. FileVault (A) is Apple's macOS disk encryption equivalent - not available on Windows. Private Key (C) is a cryptographic concept, not a disk encryption tool. PowerShell (D) is a command-line scripting environment, not an encryption solution.
