Selected Answer: C
Answer: C Explanation: Write protection preserves integrity; prioritization addresses time constraints (A) ❌ Compression tools risk altering metadata/authenticity (B) ❌ Sanitization destroys evidence; volatile data irrelevant to drive (C) ✅ Write-blockers prevent evidence tampering; focused collection meets time limits (D) ❌ Lossless compression unnecessary if imaging entire drive While bit-stream copies (Option D) are standard practice, prioritizing high-value evidence with write-blocked acquisition balances forensic soundness and time constraints. ----- If you agree, please UPVOTE.
