I think although it says that the data is already encrypted, key management is of paramount importance, because if the keys are in the same server, then it's the same as not being encrypted. That is the "Key" - pun intended. Therefore, B is indeed the correct answer: "B. Encrypt the data at rest AND put in place appropriate measures for MANAGEMENT OF ENCRYPTION KEYS" In C: " Implement redundant or backup power supplies" - how does this protect the data? Redundant data communications connections - how does this protect the data?

Selected Answer: B
To ensure the protection of client data within their data center, Security4Sure should encrypt the data at rest. Encrypting data at rest helps safeguard sensitive information even if physical access to the servers is obtained. Additionally, Security4Sure should put in place appropriate measures for the management of encryption keys. Proper key management ensures that only authorized individuals have access to the encryption keys, which are crucial for decrypting the data.

I think you did not read the question correctly, it says data is stored in their servers and are encrypted so B is incorrect C is the correct answer.
