Description
Using the four CSPs you used for the week 3 Assignment, conduct additional research on information they provide to prospective customers on data security. Specifically look for protection while data is at rest (stored), while data is being processed, and while data is in transit. If you find that the original concerns still exist, provide an opinion on why there has been no change. If you find the concerns have been addressed, what contributed to the change? Also research and discuss encryption used by the CSP. What type do they use?
Lastly, include steps for confirming their data protection practices.
Note: Proper attention to spelling, punctuation, and grammar. All references and citations must be in APA or MLA format. You should be included a list of references at the end in addition to citing information taken from those references. This assignment should be a minimum of two pages. I attached week 3 Assignment.

data.

Amazon Web Services utilizes disk and file system encryption to secure stored data in their
data center. Disk encryption encrypts the entire block of the storage using secret keys. This
method operates below the file system level. It hides file information which includes name
and size as well as hiding the directory. It is for this reason disk encryption is termed as
operating system agnostic. Encrypting file system is a Microsoft extension that encrypts disk
in NTFS filing...
