Platform Module (TPM) hardware to store encryption keys?
A.Encrypting File System (EFS)
B.BitLocker
C.Transport Layer Security (TLS)
D.Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) - Answer-BitLocker
Of the following, which is true of a virtual private network (VPN)?
A.The most common VPN protocol is HTTPS.
B.It is generally limited to transporting data for a single application.
C.It may transport data from many different applications.
D.A server must initiate a VPN connection. - Answer-C.It may transport data from many

Two organizations need to exchange large amounts of data. They require encryption to
ensure data is exchanged securely, and they want no chance of data being intercepted.
However, neither organization can absolutely verify their identity to start the exchange.
In this scenario, can you predict what would happen if encryption starts by using
asymmetric encryption to exchange a symmetric key?
A.Data transfer starts securely and is exchanged most quickly
B.Data transfer starts insecurely, but is exchanged most quickly
C.Data transfer starts insecurely and is exchanged relatively slowly
D.Data transfer starts securely, but is exchanged relatively slowly - Answer-C.Data
transfer starts insecurely and is exchanged relatively slowly [x] D [x]
, If you lose the ability to access the BitLocker primary encryption key, you will need the
recovery key to decrypt the volume. Of the following, which is recommended in order to
access the recovery key?
A.Save the recovery key to a file in the volume being encrypted.
B.Save the recovery key to a USB flash drive.
C.Never save the recovery key as this presents a security risk
.D.Store the recovery key on the motherboard's BIOS chip. - Answer-B.Save the
recovery key to a USB flash drive.
Of the following, which is the latest technology announced by the Wi-Fi Alliance to
secure wireless communication?
A.WPA2
B.WPA
C.WPA3
D.WEP - Answer-C.WPA3

B.BitLocker can selectively encrypt files and folders.
C.BitLocker can only be turned on or off for a hard drive.
D.BitLocker can selectively encrypt folders but not individual files. - Answer-BitLocker
