An international company must keep its clients’ personal information in regions where data is collected. Which approach enforces location-based requirements for data storage?
Use a hosting service physically located in each region to store local records
Protect data with advanced credentials and a robust login policy
Deploy widely distributed servers that automatically copy data to any node
Rely on customized encryption keys stored in a different territory
Storing data within a country’s own data center or approved hosting service ensures data does not leave that territory, meeting legal compliance. Methods such as strong passcodes do not guarantee data remains in a location. Encryption is valuable for confidentiality but does not constrain the physical location of data. Replicating data globally may violate those region-specific obligations.
