Question

Explanation

When moving email to the cloud, risk mitigation requires both technical and contractual controls. Ensuring logins occur over an encrypted channel (e.g., TLS/HTTPS) protects credentials and data in transit. Obtaining an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) legally binds the cloud provider to keep organizational data confidential, while an SLA (Service Level Agreement) formally defines uptime, availability, and performance expectations. Together, these address both the technical exposure and the legal/contractual accountability gap that cloud adoption introduces. The other options are incomplete - they omit either the contractual (NDA/SLA) or the encryption component, leaving significant residual risk.
