Protection of data at-rest is considered to be a storage solution and is generally a software solution that monitors how confidential data is stored. Answer A is incorrect because protection of data in-transit is considered to be a network solution and either a hardware or software solution is installed near the network perimeter to monitor for and flag policy violations. Answer C is incorrect because protection of data in-use is considered to be an endpoint solution and the application is run on end-user workstations or servers in the organization. Answer D is incorrect because there is no such data state.
