CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 431

An organization's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) directs a newly hired computer technician to install an OS on the CEO's personal laptop. The technician performs the installation, and a software audit later in the month indicates a violation of the EULA occurred as a result. Which of the following would address this violation going forward?

Answer options

• A. Security configuration baseline
• B. Separation of duties
• C. AUP
• D. NDA

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Implementing an Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) would provide clear guidelines on the proper use of software and resources, helping to prevent future EULA violations. The other options, while important in their own right, do not specifically address the need for clear user agreements and responsibility regarding software usage.
