    • New International Version

    • The Living Bible

    • None - downloading or installing unapproved software is prohibited

    Correct Answer
    A. None - downloading or installing unapproved software is prohibited
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "None - downloading or installing unapproved software is prohibited."

    The system is protected by a spam filter, anti-virus software, and firewalls.  Therefore, it is safe to assume that files attached to emails are safe.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement suggests that because the system is protected by a spam filter, anti-virus software, and firewalls, it is safe to assume that files attached to emails are safe. However, this assumption is false. While these security measures can reduce the risk of malware and spam, they are not foolproof. Hackers can still find ways to bypass these protections and send malicious files through emails. Therefore, it is important to exercise caution and not automatically assume that all attachments are safe.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that all content created and saved on BFT computer equipment, including BFT-supported smartphones, is owned by BFT. This implies that BFT has the rights to access, control, and potentially use any data or information stored on their devices. Therefore, the answer "True" indicates that BFT claims ownership over all content created and saved on their computer equipment.

    To create your Outlook signature:

    • Click on Insert, Signature, Signatures, New

    • Type directly into the Outlook message and save

    • Nothing - signatures are standardized and automatically load when you sign in to the network

    Correct Answer
    A. Nothing - signatures are standardized and automatically load when you sign in to the network
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Nothing - signatures are standardized and automatically load when you sign in to the network." This means that in Outlook, signatures are already set up and saved on the network, so users do not need to create a new signature or manually insert it into their messages. The signatures will automatically load when they sign in to the network.

If your web browser opens to a different homepage than the one you have selected, it could be due to a browser hijacker.

    • True

    • False

    Explanation
    The statement is false because it is not accurate to claim that websites such as cnn.com, msnbc.com, msn.com, dallasnews.com, and yahoo.com are completely free of malicious code and malware. While these websites may have security measures in place to prevent such issues, it is still possible for them to be targeted by hackers or for malware to be accidentally introduced.

    • Jenny123

    Correct Answer
    A. !'m5tr0nGrU
    Explanation
    The password "!'m5tr0nGrU" is the strongest because it includes a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. This makes it harder for hackers to guess or crack the password using common methods such as dictionary attacks or brute force attacks. Additionally, the password is longer, which adds an extra layer of security.

    A. Should not be shared
    Explanation
    Sharing passwords is a security risk as it allows unauthorized access to personal accounts. It is recommended to keep passwords confidential to protect sensitive information. The other statements, "Can be the same for everything" and "Must have at least 6 characters," are not true as using the same password for multiple accounts increases vulnerability to hacking, and having a longer and more complex password is generally considered more secure. Therefore, the correct answer is that passwords should not be shared.

    Your email password should not be the same as your drawbridge password.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    It is important to have different passwords for different accounts to ensure better security. Using the same password for both your email and drawbridge accounts increases the risk of unauthorized access. If a hacker gains access to one account, they could potentially gain access to the other account as well, leading to potential breaches of personal information or sensitive data. Therefore, it is advisable to have unique and strong passwords for each account to enhance security.

    What should you do with your computer when you leave for the day?

    • Log off the network and turn it off

    • Log off all open applications and leave it on

    • Log off the network and leave it on

    Correct Answer
    A. Log off the network and leave it on
    Explanation
    You should log off the network and leave the computer on when you leave for the day. Logging off the network ensures that your computer is disconnected from any external connections, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or data breaches. Leaving the computer on allows for necessary updates and maintenance tasks to be performed during non-working hours, improving the overall performance and security of the system.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement "All files are included in the periodic system backups" is false because it is unlikely that all files are included in the backups. System backups typically prioritize essential files and may exclude temporary or unnecessary files. Additionally, there may be files that are actively being used and cannot be backed up during the backup process. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that all files are included in the backups.
