Option D: 'Alibaba Cloud Certificate Service keys are loaded into memory in plaintext format ONLY when needed.' Well, that's one way to make sure your private keys are as exposed as possible. Bravo, Alibaba!

Hmm, option C is a head-scratcher. Symmetric encryption for private keys? That's like using a padlock to secure Fort Knox.

I'm not sure, but I think option D could also be correct because loading keys into memory only when needed seems secure.

Option D seems a bit sketchy to me. Storing the keys in plaintext? That's just asking for trouble.
