Explanation

NTFS (New Technology File System) is the correct choice because it natively supports file-level and folder-level permissions (ACLs), encryption (EFS), auditing, and ownership - all features required for a secure enterprise environment. FAT32 (C) has no concept of file permissions and cannot restrict access to files or folders. CDFS (B) is the CD-ROM File System used for optical discs and is read-only with no permission support. UDF (D) is also primarily used for optical media (DVDs/Blu-ray) and does not offer the security features NTFS provides. NTFS is the standard for Windows systems where security and permissions are required.
