CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 438

Which of the following is the best way to limit the loss of confidential data if an employee's company smartphone is lost or stolen?

Answer options

• A. Installing a VPN
• B. Implementing location tracking
• C. Configuring remote wipe
• D. Enabling backups

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Configuring a remote wipe is the best option because it allows the company to erase all data from the device remotely, ensuring that sensitive information cannot be accessed by unauthorized individuals. While installing a VPN, implementing location tracking, and enabling backups can enhance security and data recovery, they do not directly prevent data theft if the device is lost or stolen.
