Explanation

Encryption is the process of converting data into a form that cannot be read by unauthorized users. This can be done using a variety of techniques, such as symmetric encryption, asymmetric encryption, and hashing. In this case, the cloud administrator has discovered that the servers have been compromised and sensitive files have been exfiltrated. This means that the data is no longer confidential. To maintain data confidentiality, the cloud administrator can implement encryption. This will ensure that the data is protected even if the servers are compromised again.
