How does Data Vault (encryption) enhance the security of CAS data?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → By converting data into unreadable code to prevent misuse
Data Vault is one of the security features of CAS software. It protects data by encryption: the data is scrambled into a form that cannot be read, so even if it reaches the wrong person, it cannot be decoded and misused. Storing data on cloud servers, taking backups or disabling devices are not what encryption does.
