Which of the following best describes data that is currently being processed by an application, thereby making it active in a system's memory?
Archived data
Data at rest
Data in transit
Data in use
'Data in use' refers to data actively processed within system memory (RAM) by applications or services. It is typically in a decrypted state and therefore vulnerable to exploitation, such as malware or unauthorized access. Security strategies must be tailored to address these risks, differing from those for 'Data at rest' or 'Data in transit'.
