CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 96

A user enabled a mobile device's screen lock function with pattern unlock. The user is concerned someone could access the mobile device by repeatedly attempting random patterns to unlock the device. Which of the following features BEST addresses the user's concern?

Answer options

• A. Remote wipe
• B. Anti-malware
• C. Device encryption
• D. Failed login restrictions

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D. Failed login restrictions, helps prevent unauthorized access by limiting the number of attempts a user can make to unlock the device. Options A, B, and C do not specifically address the issue of protecting against repeated pattern attempts; instead, they focus on data security and malware protection.
