Allowing unauthorized removable devices to connect to computers increases the risk of which of the following?

Data loss prevention (DLP) is a security control or strategy used to prevent data leakage, not a risk created by removable devices.

Data exfiltration refers to the unauthorized transfer or theft of data from an organization; removable media such as USB drives provide a direct physical channel for a malicious insider or attacker to copy sensitive files and carry them out of the organization, bypassing network-based security controls.

Data classification is an administrative process of labeling data by sensitivity level and is not a risk associated with removable device usage.

Data deduplication is a storage optimization technique that eliminates redundant data copies and has no relationship to removable media security risks.
