Between A and B, I think A is the better answer. Between the loss of the device and remotely wiping it there could be a gap in time, which could be enough for the loss of data. Encryption on the other hand protects without leaving such risk.
Data encryption is the most effective measure to prevent sensitive data from being accessed by unauthorized parties if a mobile device is lost. Encryption ensures that even if the device falls into the wrong hands, the data remains protected because it is only accessible with the correct decryption key.
NOT B because it requires the device to be powered on and connected to a network for the remote wipe command to execute. If the device is offline or inaccessible, this measure may not prevent data leakage.
Incorrect.
You have remote wipe capabilities but the device is unencrpted.
Great, I steal the mobile device, and then place it in a faraday cage which blocks incming and outoging signals. Now I have your device and you can't send a command to remotely wipe it, and I have access to the data because you didn't encrypt it.
If it was encrypted I wouldn't be able to do anything with it.
Triggering remote data wipe capabilities is an effective measure to mitigate the risk of data leakage. It allows organizations to remotely erase the data on the lost or stolen device to prevent unauthorized access. However, in some cases, the data may still be recoverable if it is not encrypted. Therefore, combining data encryption with remote data wipe provides an even stronger protection against data leakage.
Answer is A
Encryption helps keep that data safe because no one can access it without the correct password. Remote data wipe capabilities will be triggered only if the Mobile device is registered to an MDLM system and when it is connected to the internet after it is lost or stolen.
All encrypted data can be decrypted, may be it will take a million years but if I could erase the data remotely, then data loss has been prevented. So I will go with B
You can block a stolen device from receiving signals to remotely wipe it. You're right maybe the datacould be decrypted years from now, but I'd rather someone leak the data at some time in the distant future where it may not be as useful than right this second if you chose to not encrypt it.
A.is correct. The data in the mobile device is fully encrypted. If there is no corresponding key, it is almost impossible for others to crack it.
