Practice question 160 of 498 · hard

An incident response disables a compromised encryption key and the dependent database becomes unavailable. What does the recovery design need to account for?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.An incident label that bypasses encryption
  2. B.A larger database administrator group
  3. C.A claim that encrypted data remains readable without its key
  4. D.Key-service dependency, rotation/migration, and protected recoverable key material
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Key-service dependency, rotation/migration, and protected recoverable key material

Customer-managed-key actions affect data availability, so dependency and recovery matter. Encryption does not permit keyless reading; broader admins or incident labels do not restore the cryptographic dependency.
