Haha, 'data at rest' in a body of water? I don't think that's what they're looking for. Gotta go with D on this one.

But what about data at rest? Shouldn't that also use TLS for protection?

I agree, D) Data in transit is the most logical answer. TLS is all about protecting information as it moves between systems.

I agree with Dottie, because TLS encrypts data while it is being transmitted.

I think data in transit would most likely use TLS.

Hmm, 'data in transit' seems like the obvious choice here. That's when we need to worry about security the most.
