CompTIA SecurityX (CAS-005) — Question 49

Which of the following best describes a risk associated with using facial recognition to locally authenticate to a mobile device?

Answer options

• A. Data remanence
• B. Deepfake
• C. Metadata scraping
• D. Biometric impersonation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Biometric impersonation is a significant risk associated with facial recognition, as it involves someone gaining unauthorized access by mimicking or replicating another person's facial features. The other options, such as data remanence, deepfake, and metadata scraping, do not specifically pertain to the risks of using facial recognition for device authentication.
