Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is a common and reliable method of keeping data secure-it scrambles data so anyone intercepting it cannot interpret it
A
Verification
B
Authentication
C
Phishing
D
Encryption
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Encryption takes plain text, like a text message or email, and scrambles it into an unreadable format-called “cipher text.” This helps protect the confidentiality of digital data either stored on computer systems or transmitted through a network like the Internet.

Detailed explanation-2: -Install antivirus software. Antivirus software plays a major role in protecting your system by detecting real-time threats to ensure your data is safe. Some advanced antivirus programs provide automatic updates, further protecting your machine from the new viruses that emerge every day.

Detailed explanation-3: -Data security refers to the process of protecting data from unauthorized access and data corruption throughout its lifecycle. Data security includes data encryption, hashing, tokenization, and key management practices that protect data across all applications and platforms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Two types of encryption algorithms can be used by the encryption key server: symmetric algorithms and asymmetric algorithms. Symmetric, or secret key encryption, uses a single key for both encryption and decryption. Symmetric key encryption is used for encrypting large amounts of data efficiently.

Detailed explanation-5: -Malware. Phishing. Man-in-the-middle attack (MITM) Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack. SQL injection. Zero-day exploit. DNS Tunnelling. Business Email Compromise (BEC) More items •16-Mar-2023
