Answer:
C is the answer!

Explanation:

A hard drive contains your operating system which can include your settings and preferences that you included in your device. But it mostly is a storage device so we know it WOULD NOT BE (B.

WOULD NOT BE D beacause powering it back on wouldnt do anything but bring you back to the start.

WOULD NOT BE A beacuse when taking out the battery then putting it back in would just be like turning it off then back on beacuse that just hold the power to a device.

IT WOULD BE C, C IS THE ANSWER beacuse a CMOS batttery contains the main system settings and  also contains information so i think C would be the best answer for this choice.


Hope this helps!

Which act requires enterprises to guard protected health information and implement policies and procedures to safeguard it?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

D. HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)

Explanation:

HIPAA which stands for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, is an act designed by the US government in 1996 to guard patients' confidential health information and also implement policies and procedures to safeguard it. The act contains the required information and instruction for handling patients' medical health information. The law however gives patients (or their representatives) the right to access these information which as a matter of fact must be made available within 30 days from the day of request.

PS: Not sure why the option D in the question contains ' FTF '. I have taken it to be a typo because without it, the option is in itself complete.
