VMware vSphere 7.x Professional (VCP-DCV 2021) — Question 27

When enabled, what ensures only signed drivers can load into a virtual machine?

Answer options

• A. Secure Boot
• B. lockdown mode
• C. micro-segmentation
• D. TPM

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Secure Boot is a security feature that ensures only signed drivers and software can be loaded into the virtual machine, preventing unauthorized code from executing. Lockdown mode restricts access to certain resources but does not specifically manage driver signatures. Micro-segmentation relates to network security and segmentation, while TPM (Trusted Platform Module) provides hardware-based security but does not directly control driver loading.
