Selected Answer: C
Human resources (HR) data typically includes sensitive information such as employee records, personal data, salaries, and other confidential details. Implementing the principle of least privilege ensures that only authorized HR personnel have access to this sensitive information, maintaining its confidentiality. Access Control: By granting access only to those who require it to perform their job functions, the organization minimizes the risk of unauthorized access, data breaches, and information leaks. The primary goal of applying least privilege to HR files is to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access, aligning directly with the confidentiality aspect of information security.
