This question has a disputed correct answer - 'D. Encryption' is the technically correct answer for protecting data at rest confidentiality in a public cloud, though the listed answer is A.
Common mistakes.

- D. Encryption of data at rest is actually the most direct and correct solution for protecting confidentiality of stored data in a public cloud, making this answer disputed as 'wrong'.
