Explanation
B is correct because CloudLink integration in PowerFlex provides encryption for data at rest, not data in transit. CloudLink serves as the key management and data-at-rest encryption solution within the PowerFlex architecture, securing stored data on the drives themselves.
Option A is wrong because it conflates two distinct security concepts - data-at-rest encryption (what CloudLink does) with data-in-transit encryption (which is handled by separate mechanisms such as TLS/SSL at the network layer).
Memory tip: Think of CloudLink as a "vault lock" - it protects data sitting still in storage, not data moving through the network. If the exam mentions transit encryption, look for TLS or network-layer solutions, not CloudLink.
