Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 261

You have a file server named FS1 that contains 10 shared folders. The folders contain user data.
A new security requirement states that all data transmissions involving the user data must be encrypted.
You need to configure FS1 to meet the security requirement.
Which command should you run?

Answer options

• A. Set-SmbServerConfiguration ""EncryptData $true
• B. Set-SmbServerConfiguration ""EnableSMB1Protocol $false
• C. Set-SmbClientConfiguration ""EnableInsecureGuestLogons $false
• D. Set-SmbClientConfiguration ""EnableSecuritySignature $true

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct command, A, enables data encryption on the SMB server, which is essential for meeting the new security requirement. Option B disables SMB1, which is not directly related to encrypting data. Options C and D pertain to client configurations that do not address the requirement for encrypting data transmissions from the server.
