Carolyn wants to advise her organization's developers on secure coding techniques to avoid data exposure. What is NOT a common technique used to avoid sensitive data exposure?

Storing data in plain text will not help prevent data exposure and, in fact, is more likely to result in data exposure. Instead, Molly should encourage her developers to store and transmit sensitive data in an encrypted form. They should also leverage HTTPS for all authenticated pages, and potentially all pages. Hashing passwords using salts is important for password security, and ensuring that tokens are not exposed via sites like GitHub or other public code repositories is important for application and data security.
