CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 404

A user's corporate phone was stolen, and the device contains company trade secrets. Which of the following technologies should be implemented to mitigate this risk? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Remote wipe
• B. Firewall
• C. Device encryption
• D. Remote backup
• E. Antivirus
• F. Global Positioning System

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

Implementing a Remote wipe allows the company to erase the data on the stolen phone, protecting sensitive information. Device encryption secures the data on the device, ensuring that even if the phone is accessed, the information remains unreadable. The other options, while beneficial for security, do not directly address the risks associated with a stolen device containing trade secrets.
