CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 42

Field workers in an organization are issued mobile phones on a daily basis. All the work is performed within one city, and the mobile phones are not used for any purpose other than work. The organization does not want these phones used for personal purposes. The organization would like to issue the phones to workers as permanent devices so the phones do not need to be reissued every day. Given the conditions described, which of the following technologies would BEST meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Geofencing
• B. Mobile device management
• C. Containerization
• D. Remote wiping

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Mobile device management (MDM) is ideal in this scenario because it allows the organization to enforce policies that prevent personal use and manage devices effectively. Geofencing, containerization, and remote wiping do not provide the same level of comprehensive control and management for the permanent assignment of devices as MDM does.
