CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-003) — Question 381

A company's employees are not permitted to access company systems while traveling internationally. The company email system is configured to block logins based on geographic location, but some employees report their mobile phones continue to sync email while traveling. Which of the following is the MOST likely explanation? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Outdated geographic IP information
• B. Privilege escalation attack
• C. VPN on the mobile device
• D. Unrestricted email administrator accounts
• E. Client use of UDP protocols
• F. Disabled GPS on mobile devices

Correct answer: A, C

Explanation

The most likely reasons for mobile phones continuing to sync email are outdated geographic IP information (A), which can incorrectly allow access based on outdated records, and the use of a VPN on the mobile device (C), which can mask the true location of the user. The other options do not directly relate to the ability to access email while traveling internationally.
