Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 499

A picture file is recovered from a computer under investigation. During the investigation process, the file is enlarged 500% to get a better view of its contents. The picture quality is not degraded at all from this process. What kind of picture is this file?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as vector images can be scaled to any size without losing quality due to their resolution-independent nature. In contrast, raster images (option A) are made of pixels, which can become blurry or pixelated when enlarged. Metafile images (option C) and catalog images (option D) do not inherently possess the properties described in the question.
