Selected Answer: D
Access control lists (ACLs) should be used to restrict access to the data quickly. ACLs allow the administrator to specify which users or groups have permission to access certain files or directories on the file server, providing a straightforward and immediate way to enforce access controls and protect confidential data.

Because group policy applies to broader system policies (on workstations an servers), but does not directly manage file access permissions.

Selected Answer: D
In this scenario, D. Access control lists (ACLs) is the best choice because it provides a quick and precise way to adjust file permissions and restrict access to confidential data on a file server. ACLs allow administrators to implement immediate changes and ensure only authorized users have access to sensitive files.
