A new platform inadvertently shows private account details on user dashboards. Which measure best reduces exposure of private data to unauthorized observers?
Scan logs for unexpected strings
Enable data encryption at rest
Turn off dashboards until a security patch is applied
Replace protected fields with placeholders for unprivileged viewers
Filtering data in real time based on each user’s access level avoids leaking protected details that encryption alone does not safeguard when data is displayed. Scanning logs or turning off dashboards does not focus on what is displayed to the user. Encrypting data at rest adds protection for stored information, but it does not prevent revealing it on the screen.
