Networking Fundamentals — Question 58

This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determine if it is correct.
All session data is "encrypted between all machines" while using telnet.
Select the correct answer if the underlined text does not make the statement correct. Select 'No change is needed" if the underlined text makes the statement correct.

Answer options

• A. Not encrypted
• B. Encrypted between any Windows machines
• C. Encrypted only to any non-Windows machines
• D. No change is needed

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because Telnet does not encrypt any session data, which makes the original statement false. Options B and C incorrectly imply some level of encryption based on the type of machines, which is also not true. Option D suggests that the statement is correct, which it is not.
