Auditing access is a good first step, but it’s not enough.

Encrypting connections sounds good, but I don’t think it addresses the sensitive data issue directly. I’d probably go with C.

I'm feeling confident about this one. Auditing access to the tables with sensitive data is the way to go. That will allow the developers to access the database while ensuring the sensitive information is properly secured.

Okay, I've got this. The key is to balance security and accessibility. Masking the sensitive data seems like the best approach - that way the developers can still access the database, but the sensitive information is protected.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I want to make sure the sensitive data is properly secured, but I also don't want to overly restrict the developers' access. I'll need to weigh the options carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question about data security. I'll carefully review the options and think through the best approach to protect the sensitive data while still allowing the developers access.

If you ask me, the best way to handle sensitive data is to just print it all out and bury it in the backyard. That's what I'd do!

Auditing access is a good idea, but it doesn't actually protect the data. Gotta go with option C and mask that sensitive stuff.

I once tried to remove all the sensitive data from a database. Ended up with an empty database and very confused developers. Option C is the way to go.
