Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

"Visible data is data that the computer operating system is aware of and is easily accessible by the user or a trained professional. Latent data is data hidden in all kinds of places in the computer and the operating system is not aware of it nor does it know where to find it, nor does the untrained user." Latent data cannot generally be viewed through typical applications, whereas visible data can be.
