Several unattended laptops containing sensitive customer data were stolen from personnel offices. Which of the following would be an IS auditor's BEST recommendation to protect data in case of recurrence?
Encrypting the disk drive (option D) would be the best recommendation for an IS auditor to protect sensitive customer data in case of recurrence. Encrypting the disk drive ensures that even if the laptops are stolen, the data stored on them remains inaccessible without the encryption key. This adds an extra layer of security to protect the confidentiality of the information. While requiring the use of cable locks (option B) can prevent physical theft to some extent, it doesn't safeguard the data itself in case the theft does occur.
