    Solution

    In part B-The phrase "should remain encrypt" is incorrect. The correct form is "should remain encrypted," as "encrypt" is a verb, but here an adjective ("encrypted") is needed to describe the information. In part C-The phrase "might been beneficial" is incorrect. The correct form is "might be beneficial," as "might" should be followed by the base form of the verb ("be"), not the past participle ("been").
