Selected Answer: A

A. Biometric data. Biometric data, such as fingerprints or iris scans, cannot be easily revoked and reissued. Unlike passwords or smartcards, biometric characteristics are unique to an individual and cannot be changed if compromised. If biometric data is compromised, it would require significant changes in how identity verification is handled or new biometric data altogether, which is not practically feasible.
