CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 288

A manager called the help desk to ask for assistance with creating a more secure environment for the finance department, which resides in a non-domain environment. Which of the following would be the BEST method to protect against unauthorized use?

Answer options

• A. Implementing password expiration
• B. Restricting user permissions
• C. Using screen locks
• D. Disabling unnecessary services

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as restricting user permissions directly limits access to sensitive information, thereby enhancing security. While implementing password expiration (A), using screen locks (C), and disabling unnecessary services (D) can contribute to security, they do not provide the same level of direct control over user access as managing permissions does.
