Selected Answer: C
Encrypting your disk with bitlocker is the safest option for security, especially if you're traveling or in an untrusted are, you can find it under Control Panel > Bitlocker Encryption to run bitlocker. You may have to turn off the option of "Allow BitLocker without a compatible TPM (requires a password, or a startup key on a USB flash drive)." This can be found in Group Policy Editor for Windows Pro or above, find the "Require additional authentication at startupA" key under [Compuer Configuration > Administrative Template > Windows Componenets > Bitlocker Drive Encryption > Operating System Drives. Here you will find the check box for "Allow BitLocker without a compatible TPM (requires a password, or a startup key on a USB flash drive)."

My vote is C. Just based off the fact that the user is traveling. while all the options are good options it makes most sense that the biggest risk is the device getting stolen. C is the best option in case the laptop is stolen in my opinion.
