Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The best solution to make sure decrypted values are exported during data export is to create another field to copy data from encrypted field and use this field in export. This is because classic encryption does not support exporting decrypted values of encrypted fields. The view encrypted data permission only allows users to view decrypted values in the user interface, but not in reports or data exports. Therefore, a workaround is to create a formula field or a workflow field update that copies the value of the encrypted field to another field, and use that field for data export. However, this solution has some drawbacks, such as exposing sensitive data in plain text and consuming extra storage space.A better solution would be to use Shield Platform Encryption, which supports exporting decrypted values of encrypted fields with the Export Encrypted Data permission
