Answer to Question 1

A powerful technical control that protects sensitive data is encryption. This process transforms the data using mathematical formulas, so that no one can read it unless they know the key to unscrambling it. A user can encrypt individual files on a computer, or the whole disk drive, by adding a password, but he will not be allowed to retrieve the information if he forgets it. Encryption is so effective that if an organization loses sensitive information that was encrypted, notification laws do not apply.
