CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) — Question 533
A security team wants to implement compliance controls that only permits the installation of company-approved software on user laptops. Which of the following should the IT department deploy?
Answer options
- A. EDR
- B. VPN
- C. MDM
- D. SaaS
Correct answer: C
Explanation
MDM (Mobile Device Management) is the correct choice because it allows for the management and enforcement of policies related to software installation on devices. EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) focuses on security monitoring and threat detection, VPN (Virtual Private Network) provides secure remote access, and SaaS (Software as a Service) refers to software delivery models, none of which directly control software installation compliance.
