CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 496

A company wants to ensure users are only logging into the system from their laptops when they are on site. Which of the following would assist with this?

Answer options

• A. Geofencing
• B. Smart cards
• C. Biometrics
• D. Tokens

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Geofencing uses GPS or RFID technology to create a virtual boundary, allowing access only when users are within a specified area, making it suitable for ensuring on-site logins. Smart cards, biometrics, and tokens provide authentication but do not restrict access based on the user's physical location.
