Exam 220-1202 Topic 1 Question 255 Discussion

Actual exam question for CompTIA's 220-1202 exam
Question #: 255
Topic #: 1
A technician is deploying mobile devices and needs to prevent access to sensitive data if the devices are lost. Which of the following is the best way to prevent unauthorized access if the user is unaware that the phone is lost?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Full-disk (or device) encryption ensures that, even if a lost mobile device is physically accessed by an unauthorized party, its stored data remains inaccessible without the correct decryption credentials. This protection is automatic and continuous, safeguarding data at rest regardless of whether the user realizes the device is missing or not. Remote wipe can remove data if triggered, but it requires the device to be online and the user (or admin) to initiate the wipe--whereas encryption is always in effect.
