Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Applying an 'Evidence Lock' or 'Retention Policy' to the record.
Why this is correct
These features prevent modification of finalized evidence records.
- ✗
Disabling the record deletion permission for all users.
Why it's wrong here
Deletion is different from modification; record locking is the more comprehensive control.
- ✗
Setting the record visibility to 'Public'.
Why it's wrong here
Visibility controls who sees the record, not whether it can be changed.
- ✗
Setting the 'Draft' workflow state to permanent.
Why it's wrong here
Draft states are for work-in-progress, not final evidence.
