Question
An on-premises application server connects to a database in the cloud. Which of the following must be considered to ensure data integrity during transmission?
Options
- ABandwidth
- BEncryption
- CRedundancy
- DMasking
Explanation
Encryption (B) is correct because it protects data in transit by transforming it into an unreadable format, ensuring that even if intercepted, the data cannot be tampered with or read - directly addressing integrity and confidentiality during transmission.
- Bandwidth (A) relates to network throughput and speed, not whether data arrives unaltered.
- Redundancy (C) provides failover and availability but doesn't protect data from interception or corruption during a single transmission.
- Masking (D) hides sensitive data at rest or in display contexts (e.g., showing
****for a credit card), not during active network transmission.
Memory tip: Think "in transit = encrypt it." Any time a question mentions data moving between systems - especially across untrusted networks like the internet - encryption (TLS/SSL) is the mechanism that ensures integrity and confidentiality.
