CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 465

Which of the following is most likely a security concern when installing and using low-cost IoT devices in infrastructure environments?

Answer options

• A. Country of origin
• B. Device responsiveness
• C. Ease of deployment

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as low-cost IoT devices often have inadequate security measures for protecting data storage, which could lead to unauthorized access or data breaches. Options A, B, and C, while relevant to the overall functionality and usability of IoT devices, do not directly address the critical security vulnerabilities associated with data storage.
