You want to prevent a person from accessing your phone while you step away from your desk. What should you do?
- A.
Implement remote backup
- B.
Set up a remote wipe program
- C.
Configure a screen lock.
- D.
Install a locator application.
Correct Answer
C. Configure a screen lock.Explanation
To prevent unauthorized access to your phone while you step away from your desk, configuring a screen lock is the most effective solution. A screen lock adds an extra layer of security by requiring a password, PIN, pattern, or biometric authentication (such as fingerprint or face recognition) to unlock the device. This ensures that even if someone gains physical access to your phone, they won't be able to access your personal data without the correct credentials. Remote backup, remote wipe programs, and locator applications are useful for different purposes, but they do not directly address the issue of preventing access to your phone in your absence.Rate this question:
