A tester needs to create a separate place for holding confidential materials on a workstation that cannot accommodate new partitions. Which approach best introduces an independent location recognized by the system for storing these items?
Change file attributes on an existing folder to reduce visibility
Adjust environment variables to start particular routines
Send files to a concealed remote storage location
Map a file-based resource as its own drive recognized by the system
Mapping a file-based resource as its own drive recognized by the operating system offers a legitimate separate storage area without changing the physical partition structure or deploying harmful code. Adjusting environment variables limits system-wide behaviors but does not provide a new drive-like repository. Uploading data to a remote location might extract data rather than create a stand-alone location on the current machine. Tweaking attributes on an existing folder hides content, but it does not produce a newly recognized drive environment.
