Selected Answer: C
A digital signature allows you to verify the integrity and authenticity of the data. By signing the data (or its hash) with a private key, you can later verify that the data has not been altered by using the corresponding public key. This added layer ensures that upon retrieval, any unauthorized changes can be detected.
