Question: 1 / 190

The Stored Communication Act safeguards which type of services from unauthorized access or interception?

Broadcasting services

Healthcare services

Shipping services

Electronic communication and computing services

The Stored Communications Act (SCA) is primarily focused on protecting the privacy of electronic communications and the stored data associated with such communications. This legislation specifically applies to electronic communication services, which include any service that provides users the ability to send or receive electronic communications, such as email providers and messaging services. It also covers computing services that store user data, ensuring that any unauthorized access to these communications and stored data is prohibited.

The Act aims to prevent unauthorized interception of transmitted communications and to protect stored communications from being accessed without appropriate legal process. Thus, electronic communication and computing services are the key areas safeguarded by the SCA, aligning perfectly with the choice provided.

In contrast, broadcasting, healthcare, and shipping services do not fall under the specific protections outlined by the SCA as their primary focus is on electronic communications rather than these service domains.
