- A.
2 Minutes
- B.
1 Hour
- C.
10-15 Minutes
- D.
5 Minutes
Correct Answer
C. 10-15 MinutesExplanation
The screensaver/idle timeout should be set to 10-15 minutes when you have access to customer files. This is necessary to ensure the security and privacy of the customer information. If the screensaver/idle timeout is set to a shorter time, there is a risk of unauthorized access to the customer files if the computer is left unattended. On the other hand, if the timeout is set to a longer time, there is a higher chance of someone accessing the customer files without proper authorization. Therefore, setting the screensaver/idle timeout to 10-15 minutes strikes a balance between security and convenience.Rate this question:
