CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 223

A systems administrator wants to restrict access to a set of sensitive files to a specific group of users. Which of the following will achieve the objective?

Answer options

• A. Add audit rules on the server
• B. Configure data loss prevention in the environment
• C. Change tine permissions and ownership of the files
• D. Implement a HIPS solution on the host

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as changing the permissions and ownership of the files directly controls who can access them. Options A and B do not restrict access; they focus on monitoring and preventing data loss, respectively. Option D, while it provides security, does not specifically limit file access for a group of users.
