✓ Correct answer
- Encryption at rest protects stored data, while authorization still allows permitted readers to receive plaintext
At-rest encryption protects stored media rather than denying authorized reads. Customer-managed keys do not replace identity/data permissions. A private endpoint limits the network path but does not prohibit a permitted client from reading or exporting data. Source guide: PDF page 29.
