CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 884
A systems administrator wants to protect data stored on mobile devices that are used to scan and record assets in a warehouse. The control must automatically destroy the secure container of mobile devices if they leave the warehouse. Which of the following should the administrator implement? (Choose two.)
Answer options
- A. Geofencing
- B. Remote wipe
- C. Near-field communication
- D. Push notification services
- E. Containerization
Correct answer: A, E
Explanation
Geofencing is the appropriate solution as it allows for tracking the location of devices and can trigger actions like data deletion if they leave designated boundaries. Containerization is also correct because it enables the secure management of applications and data on mobile devices, which can be wiped if the device leaves the defined area. The other options, such as Remote wipe and Push notification services, do not specifically address the requirement for automatic destruction based on location.
