"When using BitLocker on a laptop, the laptop should not use standby mode, rather it should use hibernate mode. This is because Hibernate writes memory to the computer’s disk drive, which means simply keeps the computer in a very low power state, and memory is maintained and not protected by BitLocker.

Answer:

This statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct statement should read:

"When using BitLocker on a laptop, the laptop should not use standby mode, rather it should use hibernate mode. This is because Hibernate writes memory to the computer’s disk drive, ****which means the contents of the computer's memory are protected by Bitlocker.****

Standby mode (which is basically putting the computer to sleep) keeps the computer in a very low power state, and memory is maintained and not protected by BitLocker."

Hope this Helps.
