CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 333

A user’s mobile device can back up classified files to an external hard drive at work but cannot save pictures to an external drive at home. Which of the following is most likely the issue?

Answer options

• A. The pictures do not have a classification flag set.
• B. The drive permissions are insufficient.
• C. Peripherals are managed via MDM.
• D. Drivers are incorrectly installed.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because Mobile Device Management (MDM) policies often restrict the use of peripherals based on location, which explains why the user can back up files at work but not at home. Options A, B, and D do not address the context of location-based restrictions imposed by MDM, making them less likely reasons for the issue.
