CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 621

As part of a new BYOD rollout, a security analyst has been asked to find a way to securely store company data on personal devices.
Which of the following would BEST help to accomplish this?

Answer options

• A. Require the use of an eight-character PIN.
• B. Implement containerization of company data.
• C. Require annual AUP sign-off.
• D. Use geofencing tools to unlock devices while on the premises.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as containerization creates a secure environment for company data on personal devices, isolating it from personal data. Options A, C, and D do not provide the same level of security for storing sensitive corporate information, as they focus more on access control and policy compliance rather than data protection.
