NEW QUESTION # 279
A technician receives an invalid certificate error when visiting a website. Other workstations on the same local network are unable to replicate this issue. Which of the following is most likely causing the issue?

  • A. User access control
  • B. UEFI boot mode
  • C. Log-on times
  • D. Date and time

Answer: D

Explanation:
Explanation
Date and time is the most likely cause of the issue. The date and time settings on a workstation affect the validity of the certificates used by websites to establish secure connections. If the date and time are incorrect, the workstation may not recognize the certificate as valid and display an invalid certificate error. Other workstations on the same local network may not have this issue if their date and time are correct. User access control, UEFI boot mode, and log-on times are not likely causes of the issue. User access control is a feature that prevents unauthorized changes to the system by prompting for confirmation or credentials. UEFI boot mode is a firmware interface that controls the boot process of the workstation. Log-on times are settings that restrict when a user can log in to the workstation. None of these factors affect the validity of the certificates used by websites. References:

  • A. Adhere to user privacy policy
  • B. Set and meet timelines
  • C. Avoid distractions
  • D. Deal appropriately with customer's confidential material

NEW QUESTION # 281
A user's Android phone has been randomly restarting. A technician investigates and finds several applications have been installed that are not available within the standard marketplace. Which of the following is most likely the cause of the issue?

  • A. The OS update failed.
  • B. The device is In developer mode.
  • C. The user downloaded malware.
  • D. The over-the-air carrier update failed.

Answer: C

Explanation:
Random restarting of an Android phone and the presence of applications not from the standard marketplace strongly suggest the possibility of malware.
Option A: The OS update failed
While an OS update failure can cause issues, it is less likely to result in random restarts compared to malware.
Option B: The user downloaded malware
Malware is a common cause of erratic behavior, including random restarts, especially when applications are installed from unofficial sources.
Option C: The device is in developer mode
Developer mode alone does not typically cause random restarts. It may make the device more susceptible to issues if improper apps are installed.
Option D: The over-the-air carrier update failed
Similar to the OS update, this would more likely cause consistent issues rather than random restarts.

Explanation
The new laptop was set up with the static IP it needs to connect to the software. The old desktop is still configured with that IP, hence the conflict.


NEW QUESTION # 284
A systems administrator installed the latest Windows security patch and received numerous tickets reporting slow performance the next day. Which of the following should the administrator do to resolve this issue?

  • A. Rebuild user profiles.
  • B. Roll back the updates.
  • C. Restart the services.
  • D. Perform a system file check.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Rolling back the updates is the best way to resolve the issue of slow performance caused by installing the latest Windows security patch. This can be done by using the System Restore feature or by uninstalling the specific update from the Control Panel. Rebuilding user profiles, restarting the services and performing a system file check are not likely to fix the issue, since they do not undo the changes made by the update.

NEW QUESTION # 285
Which of the following security methods supports the majority of current Wi-Fi-capable devices without sacrificing security?

  • A. WPA3
  • B. MAC filleting
  • C. TACACS+
  • D. RADIUS

Answer: A

Explanation:
WPA3 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 3) is a wireless security method that supports the majority of current Wi-Fi-capable devices without sacrificing security. It is backward compatible with WPA2 devices and offers enhanced encryption and authentication features. MAC filtering is another wireless security method, but it can be easily bypassed by spoofing MAC addresses. RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) and TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus) are network authentication protocols, but they are not wireless security methods by themselves.

NEW QUESTION # 286
A payroll workstation has data on it that needs to be readily available and can be recovered quickly if something is accidentally removed. Which of the following backup methods should be used to provide fast data recovery in this situation?

  • A. Full
  • B. Synthetic
  • C. Incremental
  • D. Differential

Answer: A

Explanation:
Explanation
A full backup does not depend on any previous backups, unlike differential or incremental backups, which only save the changes made since the last backup. A synthetic backup is a type of full backup that combines an existing full backup with incremental backups to create a new full backup, but it still requires multiple backup sets to recover data. Therefore, a full backup is the most suitable for the payroll workstation that needs to have its data readily available and recoverable. You can learn more about the differences between full, differential, incremental, and synthetic backups from this article.

NEW QUESTION # 289
A user connected an external hard drive but is unable to see it as a destination to save files. Which of the following tools will allow the drive to be formatted?

  • A. Device Manager
  • B. Disk Defragmenter
  • C. Disk Cleanup
  • D. Disk Management

Answer: D

Explanation:
Disk Management is a tool that allows users to create, format, delete, shrink, extend, and manage partitions on hard drives. If the external hard drive is not formatted or has an incompatible filesystem type, Disk Management can be used to format it with a supported filesystem type such as NTFS, FAT32, or exFAT.
Device Manager, Disk Cleanup, and Disk Defragmenter are not tools that can format a hard drive.


NEW QUESTION # 290
Antivirus software indicates that a workstation is infected with ransomware that cannot be quarantined. Which of the following should be performed first to prevent further damage to the host and other systems?

  • A. Install a different endpoint solution.
  • B. Remove the LAN card.
  • C. Turn off the machine.
  • D. Run a full antivirus scan.

Answer: C

Explanation:
Turning off the machine is the first and most urgent step to prevent further damage to the host and other systems. Ransomware can encrypt files, steal data, and spread to other devices on the network if the infected machine remains online. Turning off the machine will stop the ransomware process and isolate the machine from the network12. The other options are either ineffective or risky. Running a full antivirus scan may not detect or remove the ransomware, especially if it is a new or unknown variant. Removing the LAN card may disconnect the machine from the network, but it will not stop the ransomware from encrypting or deleting files on the local drive. Installing a different endpoint solution may not be possible or helpful if the ransomware has already compromised the system or blocked the installation.

NEW QUESTION # 294
Which of the following protocols supports fast roaming between networks?

  • A. LEAP
  • B. WPA2
  • C. WEP
  • D. WPA
  • E. PEAP

Answer: D

Explanation:
WPA2 is the only protocol among the options that supports fast roaming between networks. Fast roaming, also known as IEEE 802.11r or Fast BSS Transition (FT), enables a client device to roam quickly in environments implementing WPA2 Enterprise security, by ensuring that the client device does not need to re-authenticate to the RADIUS server every time it roams from one access point to another1. WEP, WPA, LEAP, and PEAP do not support fast roaming and require the client device to perform the full authentication process every time it roams, which can cause delays and interruptions in the network service.

  • A. Certification of destruction
  • B. Shredding/drilling
  • C. Low-level formatting
  • D. Non-disclosure agreement

Answer: A

Explanation:
When disposing of e-waste, it is important to ensure that the data on the equipment is securely destroyed and that the disposal process complies with environmental regulations.
Non-disclosure agreement: Relates to confidentiality, not disposal.
Certification of destruction: The correct document verifying that the equipment has been disposed of in accordance with regulations and standards, ensuring data is irretrievably destroyed.
Low-level formatting: A method to wipe data but does not guarantee compliance with e-waste disposal regulations.
Shredding/drilling: Physical destruction methods that might be used, but certification of destruction is the documentation needed.
