Question

You want to protect data on hard drives for users with laptops. You want the drive to be encrypted, and you want to prevent the laptops from booting unless a special USB drive is inserted. In addition, the system should not boot if a change is detected in any of the boot files. What should you do

Answer 1

Implement BitLocker with a TPM

Step-by-step explanation:

In Computer science, a memory is a term used to describe the available space or an electronic device that is typically used for the storage of data or any computer related information such as images, videos, texts, music, codes and folders. Some examples of a storage device are hard disk drive, CD-ROM, flash drive, etc.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of memory;

A. Read only memory (ROM).

B. Random access memory (RAM).

In Cyber security, encryption is a form of cryptography and typically involves the process of converting or encoding informations in plaintext into a code, known as a ciphertext.

Typically, an information or data that has been encrypted can only be accessed and deciphered by an authorized user.

In this scenario, if you want to prevent the laptops from booting unless a special USB drive is inserted; you should implement BitLocker with a trusted platform module (TPM) on Microsoft Windows.
