Selected Answer: B
While limiting the creation of virtual machine images and snapshots (option D) may also help mitigate risks associated with data stored on virtual machines, it may not be as effective as restricting access to existing images and snapshots, particularly if unauthorized individuals already have access to these resources. Therefore, restricting access to images and snapshots of virtual machines is likely the MOST effective control for protecting the confidentiality and integrity of data stored unencrypted on virtual machines.
