Which of the following techniques BEST protects the privacy of personal data accessed via system endpoints?

Question

Options

• AEndpoint detection and response (EDR)
• BEncryption
• CNormalization
• DIntrusion detection system (IDS)

• B
  92% (24)
• C
  4% (1)
• D

Explanation

Encryption-specifically transport layer encryption such as TLS-protects personal data as it travels between clients and system endpoints, ensuring that intercepted data is unreadable without the decryption key. End-to-end encryption can also protect data at the application layer. This directly addresses the confidentiality of personal data in transit through endpoints. Endpoint detection and response (A) monitors endpoint behavior for threats and responds to incidents, but does not encrypt or protect the data itself. Normalization (C) is a data structuring technique (e.g., database normalization) with no inherent privacy protection. An intrusion detection system (D) detects suspicious network or system activity but does not protect the content of data flowing through endpoints.
