Utilizing encryption for data in transit is crucial because it protects the information from unauthorized access while it is being sent over networks. While access controls are important, they do not inherently secure the data itself during transmission. Data masking is a method used for protecting data, but it is generally applied when the data is at rest rather than while in transit. Therefore, encryption stands out as the best choice to ensure confidentiality and integrity.
