Answers
D.

Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a hardware component that provides cryptographic functions and secure storage for encryption keys, passwords, and certificates. BitLocker requires a TPM to be enabled and activated in the BIOS or UEFI settings of the laptop in order to use SSD-level encryption.

The technician should check that the TPM is enabled and activated before trying to turn on BitLocker.
