CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 180

A company is switching to a remote work model for all employees. All company and employee resources will be in the cloud. Employees must use their personal computers to access the cloud computing environment. The company will manage the operating system. Which of the following deployment models is the company implementing?

Answer options

• A. CYOD
• B. MDM
• C. COPE
• D. VDI

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure), as it allows employees to access a virtualized desktop environment from their personal devices while the company manages the operating system. A is incorrect because CYOD (Choose Your Own Device) doesn't imply the management of the OS by the company. B, MDM (Mobile Device Management), focuses on managing mobile devices rather than providing a virtual desktop. C, COPE (Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled), refers to devices owned by the company but allowed for personal use, which is not the scenario described.
