Correct answer: C
Explanation
Data Discovery [sn_data_discovery] enables customers to identify sensitive data within a ServiceNow instance to classify, protect, and report. Data Discovery is customisable for your organisation's needs with custom filters and workflows.
You can use Data Discovery to identify sensitive data within an instance, such as credit card information, emails, or social security numbers.
Data Discovery runs a user-defined set of jobs on a set of tables. The jobs search for and report sensitive information for review on the Data Discovery dashboard. When running, a scheduled job automatically uses all active data patterns and target tables.
Here are the other options:
Data Classification: To group data by type using pre-defined or user-defined data classifications.
Data Privacy: To classify sensitive data, remove personally identifiable information (PII) from user data in a production instance, and anonymise data in non-production instances.
Data Filtration: To control access to tables and records based on subject attributes when performing read queries.
Data Separation: To restrict access to sensitive data based on a lens hierarchy and its leaf node.
