Which of the following describes the type of encryption supported by LTO tape drives to protect data in transit between a datacenter and an off-site storage facility?

IEEE 802.5z is not a standard related to LTO tape encryption; IEEE 802.5 refers to Token Ring networks.

IPSec-based encryption is used for securing network communications, protecting data-in-flight over IP networks, not for encrypting data directly written to tape media.

LTO tape drives incorporate hardware-based encryption that encrypts data as it is written onto the tape cartridge. This encryption protects the data while it is physically stored on the tape media, meaning it is secured 'at rest' whether it's in a datacenter or being transported off-site.

Data-In-Flight encryption protects data during transmission over a network; LTO encryption secures data *on* the physical tape, which is considered data at rest even when the tape itself is physically in transit.
