Practice question
A project manager has a legal right to read a business file but no consent from the entity lawfully possessing its identity-verification key to distribute that key. He argues file-reading permission necessarily permits key distribution. Which is best?
- Any reader may distribute every key
- Section 31 separately protects the key and requires the lawful possessor’s consent; reading access alone does not supply it
- Keys are not addressed by the Act
- Only the manager’s rank matters
- Distribution is automatically lawful if internal
