A user needs to transfer confidential data from one device to another and must ensure the information remains secure even if the drive is lost or stolen. Which of the following options represents the BEST type of flash drive the user should use?
A flash drive with the largest capacity available
A flash drive with hardware-based encryption
A flash drive with a rugged and waterproof design
A high-speed flash drive with the latest USB interface
The user should use a flash drive with hardware-based encryption. This type of flash drive provides an additional layer of security that encrypts the stored data, making it unreadable without the proper encryption key, such as a password or a fingerprint. Other options like high capacity or speed do not inherently address the security concerns of keeping the data confidential.
