CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 5

After a security audit, a technician is tasked with implementing new measures to help secure company workstations. The new policy states that all workstations must be signed off at night, a password is necessary to boot the computer, and encryption must be enabled.
Which of the following features should the technician implement to BEST meet these requirements? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Screen locks
• B. Screensaver passwords
• C. UEFI passwords
• D. Login time restrictions
• E. Strong passwords
• F. Multifactor authentication
• G. BitLocker
• H. Credential Manager
• I. Smart card
• J. Biometric authentication

Correct answer: C, D, G

Explanation

Implementing UEFI passwords ensures that a password is required to boot the computer, aligning with the policy's requirement. Login time restrictions help manage when users can access workstations, which supports the need to sign off at night. BitLocker provides full disk encryption, fulfilling the necessity for encryption to be enabled on the workstations. The other options do not fully address all the policy requirements.
