answer is D Implementing a data retention policy is the best way for an organization to control costs related to storage media throughout the information life cycle while still meeting business and regulatory requirements. A data retention policy specifies how long certain types of data should be retained and when it can be deleted or destroyed. By following a data retention policy, an organization can ensure that it is retaining only the data that it is required to keep and can avoid the cost of storing unnecessary data. Options A, B, and C may help to control costs related to storage media, but they do not address the issue of meeting business and regulatory requirements.
