C Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is C (Erasing magnetic media) because degaussing is the process of demagnetizing objects like hard drives, tape, or CRT monitors by reducing their magnetic field to zero. This permanently erases data stored magnetically. It has nothing to do with CPU attachments or medical software.
