Asymmetric encryption is a method of encrypting and decrypting data using two different keys: a public key and a private key. The public key can be shared with anyone, while the private key is kept secret by the owner. Data encrypted with the public key can only be decrypted with the private key, and vice versa. Asymmetric encryption ensures the security of encryption keys when transferring data containing personal information between cloud applications, by providing the following benefits:

• It can prevent unauthorized access or use of the data, as only the intended recipient who has the matching private key can decrypt the data sent by the sender who has the public key.
• It can prevent man-in-the-middle attacks, where an attacker intercepts and modifies the data or keys in transit, as any tampering with the data or keys will result in decryption failure or error.
• It can enable digital signatures, where the sender encrypts a message digest of the data with their private key, and the recipient verifies it with the sender’s public key. Digital signatures can ensure the authenticity and integrity of the data and the sender.

The other options are less effective or irrelevant for ensuring the security of encryption keys when transferring data containing personal information between cloud applications. Whole disk encryption is a method of encrypting all the data on a disk or device, such as a laptop or a smartphone. It does not protect the data when they are transferred over a network or stored on a cloud server. Symmetric encryption is a method of encrypting and decrypting data using the same key. It requires both parties to securely exchange and store the key, which may be difficult or risky in a cloud environment. Digital signature is not a method of encryption, but an application of asymmetric encryption that can provide additional security features for data transmission.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a protocol that provides secure communication over the internet by encrypting and authenticating data. TLS provides data integrity through the calculation of message digests, which are cryptographic hashes that summarize the content and structure of a message. The sender and the receiver of a message can compare the message digests to verify that the message has not been altered or corrupted during transmission. TLS also uses digital certificates, asymmetric encryption, and symmetric encryption to provide confidentiality and authentication, but these are not directly related to data integrity.

User behavior analytics is a technology that uses data analysis and machine learning to monitor, detect and respond to anomalous or malicious user activities, such as accessing sensitive personal customer information to use for unauthorized purposes. User behavior analytics is the best choice to mitigate this risk, as it would help to identify and prevent insider threats, data breaches, fraud or misuse of data by authorized individuals. User behavior analytics can also help to enforce policies and controls, such as access control, audit trail or data loss prevention. The other options are not as effective as user behavior analytics in mitigating this risk. Email filtering system is a technology that scans and blocks incoming or outgoing emails that contain spam, malware or phishing attempts, but it does not address the issue of authorized individuals accessing sensitive personal customer information to use for unauthorized purposes. Intrusion monitoring is a technology that monitors and alerts on unauthorized or malicious attempts to access a system or network, but it does not address the issue of authorized individuals accessing sensitive personal customer information to use for unauthorized purposes. Mobile device management (MDM) is a technology that manages and secures mobile devices that are used to access or store organizational data, but it does not address the issue of authorized individuals accessing sensitive personal customer information to use for unauthorized purposes1, p. 92 References: 1: CDPSE Review Manual (Digital Version)
