It protects a computer from malicious software such as worms
- C.
It involves two or more methods as part of the authentication process
- D.
It is a process in which a client process and a server are required to prove their indentities to each other before performing any application function.
Correct Answer
C. It involves two or more methods as part of the authentication processExplanation
The correct answer is "It involves two or more methods as part of the authentication process." Multi-factor authentication is a security measure that requires users to provide two or more different types of evidence to verify their identity. This can include something the user knows (password), something the user has (smart card), or something the user is (biometric data). By combining multiple methods, it adds an extra layer of security and makes it more difficult for unauthorized individuals to gain access to sensitive information or systems.Rate this question:

Which of the following devices provides input by analyzing printed text, handwriting, or an object?
- A.
Webcam
- B.
Image scanner
- C.
Packet analyzer
- D.
BD-ROM Drive
Correct Answer
B. Image scannerExplanation
An image scanner is a device that provides input by analyzing printed text, handwriting, or an object. It uses optical character recognition (OCR) technology to convert the physical content into digital data that can be processed by a computer. This allows users to easily digitize documents, images, or physical objects and store or manipulate them electronically. Unlike a webcam, which captures live video footage, an image scanner focuses on capturing and converting static visual information into a digital format. Packet analyzers and BD-ROM drives are not designed for analyzing printed text, handwriting, or objects.Rate this question:

- A.
It is used to connect a computer in a network
- B.
It is used to connect extra microprocessors
- C.

- D.
It is used to extend to slots for expansion cards
Correct Answer
D. It is used to extend to slots for expansion cardsExplanation
A riser card is a hardware component used to extend the slots for expansion cards in a computer. It allows additional expansion cards to be connected to the motherboard by raising them vertically, providing more space for installation. This is useful when there are limited slots available on the motherboard or when specific configurations require additional expansion capabilities.Rate this question:

Which of the following can be used to accomplish authentication? Choose all that apply.
- A.
Biometrics
- B.
Encryption
- C.
Password
- D.
Token
Correct Answer(s)
A. Biometrics

D. TokenExplanation
Biometrics, password, and token can all be used to accomplish authentication. Biometrics refers to the use of unique physical characteristics, such as fingerprints or facial recognition, to verify a person's identity. Passwords are a common method of authentication, where users must enter a secret code to access a system. Tokens are physical devices, such as smart cards or USB tokens, that generate one-time passwords or provide a secure means of authentication. All three methods provide different levels of security and can be used individually or in combination to authenticate users.Rate this question:

Which of the following devices can cause great harm to one's life with lethal electric shocks?
- A.
SMPS
- B.
Floppy drive
- C.
Monitor
- D.
Keyboard
Correct Answer(s)
A. SMPS
C. MonitorExplanation
SMPS (Switched Mode Power Supply) and Monitor can both cause great harm to one's life with lethal electric shocks. SMPS is responsible for converting and regulating the electrical power from the main supply to the required voltage for the computer components. If not handled properly, it can deliver high voltage electric shocks. Similarly, a faulty or damaged monitor can also pose a risk of electric shock due to exposed wires or internal malfunctions. Floppy drives and keyboards, on the other hand, do not have the capability to cause lethal electric shocks.Rate this question:

USB and PS/2 ports are used to connect a keyboard to a computer. USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a common port found on most modern computers and is widely used for connecting various peripherals, including keyboards. PS/2 ports, on the other hand, are older ports specifically designed for connecting keyboards and mice. Although less common nowadays, some computers still have PS/2 ports for backward compatibility with older devices. DB-25 and DB-9 ports are not typically used for connecting keyboards.Rate this question:

Which of the following features are related to power management? Choose two.
- A.
Hot plugging
- B.
Hibernate mode
- C.
Standby mode
- D.
Safe mode
Correct Answer(s)
B. Hibernate mode
C. Standby modeExplanation
Hibernate mode and standby mode are both related to power management. Hibernate mode is a power-saving state that saves the current state of your computer to the hard drive and shuts down, allowing you to resume where you left off when you power it back on. Standby mode, on the other hand, puts your computer into a low-power state while still keeping your session and open documents in memory, allowing for quick resumption of work. Both of these features help conserve power by allowing the computer to enter a low-power state when not in use.Rate this question:
