Selected Answer: C
C. Patching Explanation: Patching is the process of applying updates to software, firmware, or operating systems to fix security vulnerabilities, improve functionality, and maintain stability—all while preserving critical application data. Regular patching ensures that security flaws are addressed without disrupting the application or losing important data. Breakdown of the other options: A. Reformatting: Involves wiping and reinstalling the system, which results in data loss unless backed up. B. Decommissioning: Refers to retiring an application or system, often leading to data archiving or removal. D. Encryption: Protects data by making it unreadable without a decryption key but does not directly improve functionality or fix security flaws.
