When an organization moves sensitive files from its local server to a remote backup site using a secure connection, which state describes the condition of the data during this process?
The data is at rest on the local server until the move is completed.
The data is in transit during the movement to the remote backup site.
The data is archived until it reaches the backup site.
The data is in use while being transferred to the backup site.
The data is considered in transit as it is being actively moved from the local server to the remote backup site. This state necessitates protection measures like encryption to secure the data against potential breaches. The term 'in use' would describe data that is being actively processed, while 'at rest' would refer to data that is stored and not currently being manipulated. 'Archived' implies that the data is inactive and stored for long-term retention, which doesn't apply during the movement process.
