A user is working from home and is unable to access work files on a company laptop.
Which of the following should a technician configure to fix the network access issue?

  1. Wide-area network
  2. Wireless network
  3. Proxy network settings
  4. Virtual private network

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

A VPN creates a secure tunnel from the user's home network into the corporate network, providing the necessary routing and access controls for the laptop to reach internal file servers. Without a VPN, the device remains outside the corporate LAN and cannot directly reach protected resources.



A technician is troubleshooting an issue in which a service runs momentarily and stops at certain points in the process. The technician needs to determine the root cause of this issue.
Which of the following tools should the technician use?

  1. Event Viewer
  2. Task Manager
  3. Internet Options
  4. Process Explorer

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Event Viewer logs system, application, and service events, including errors and warnings when a service stops unexpectedly. Reviewing these logs provides detailed error codes and messages that help identify the root cause of the service interruptions.



Which of the following is an example of an application publisher including undisclosed additional software in an installation package?

  1. Virus
  2. Ransomware
  3. Potentially unwanted program
  4. Trojan

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

A potentially unwanted program (PUP) refers to software bundled with an installer that the user did not explicitly request and that's often advertised or installed without clear disclosure.
While not always malicious, PUPs can degrade performance or introduce unwanted behavior, matching the description of undisclosed additional software in a package.



A technician needs to map a shared drive from a command-line interface.
Which of the following commands should the technician use?

  1. pathping
  2. nslookup
  3. net use
  4. tracert

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The Windows net use command is used to connect, remove, and configure connections to shared network resources. To map a shared drive from the CLI, you'd run a command like:
net use Z: \\ServerName\ShareName
This assigns the shared folder to drive letter Z:.



A help desk team was alerted that a company-owned cell phone has an unrecognized password-cracking application.
Which of the following should the help desk team do to prevent further unauthorized installations from occurring?

  1. Configure Group Policy.
  2. Implement PAM.
  3. Install anti-malware software.
  4. Deploy MDM.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

A Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution lets administrators enforce app-installation policies - whitelisting approved applications and blocking all others. By deploying MDM, the help desk can centrally control which apps users may install on company-owned phones, preventing unauthorized tools from being added in the future.
