Implementing encryption to secure data is an example of a detective technical control.
True
False
This statement is false. Encryption is a technical control that functions as a preventive control. It prevents unauthorized access by converting data into a coded format that only authorized users can decipher, thereby stopping potential breaches before they occur. Detective controls, on the other hand, are designed to identify and alert to security incidents after they have happened, such as intrusion detection systems or security audits.
