When setting up a workstation in a company that handles sensitive customer data, which of the following is the BEST action to ensure compliance with government regulations?
Ensuring only services necessary for workstation operation are running.
Encrypting all sensitive data stored on the workstation.
Applying an air filtration mask when servicing the workstation.
Implementing a strong password policy for workstation access.
Applying an air filtration mask is essential for personal safety but does not relate to data handling regulations. Ensuring only necessary services are running on the system might improve security, but it is not a direct compliance requirement. Encrypting all sensitive data on the workstation is the best action to ensure compliance with government regulations for data protection, as most government regulations require encryption of sensitive data to prevent unauthorized access in the event of a data breach. Lastly, creating a strong password policy is important for security but does not directly relate to compliance with regulations specific to data handling practices.
