A company sends sensitive files to an offsite location. Which practice best prevents unwanted parties from examining the full content during the transfer?
Obscure each record by removing certain fields
Run an integrity check after the files arrive at the destination
Assign each individual a data restriction profile prior to delivery
Apply recognized layered safeguards to the communication path
Recognized layered safeguards form a protective barrier so that external entities cannot read the information. Assigning restriction profiles, verifying file integrity later, or hiding certain fields does not shield the entire data if it is intercepted in transit.
