Explanation

PowerProtect Data Manager secures data in transit by employing encryption, which scrambles data into an unreadable format so that even if intercepted, it cannot be understood without the decryption key - making C the correct answer.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (Multi-factor authentication) controls who can access the system, not how data is protected while moving across a network.
• B (Network firewalls) filter traffic at the perimeter but do not protect the content of data packets themselves during transmission.
• D (VPN tunnels) can carry encrypted data, but they are a transport mechanism, not the security method itself - and PowerProtect does not rely on VPNs as its core transmission security approach.

Memory tip: Think "data in motion needs encryption lotion" - whenever a question asks about protecting data during transmission, encryption is almost always the answer, because it secures the data itself regardless of the path it travels.
