QuestionQ135

Application Deployment and Security

When end-to-end encryption is in place, which area is most susceptible to exploitation?

  • A cryptographic key exchange
  • B endpoint security
  • C cryptographic key generation
  • D security of data in transit
Explanation

End-to-end encryption protects the confidentiality of data in transit between the communicating endpoints, but it cannot protect plaintext or cryptographic material at a compromised sender or receiver. Endpoint compromise can therefore expose data before encryption or after decryption.
