A user is unable to log in to the network. The network uses 802.1X with EAP-TLS to authenticate on the wired network. The user has been on an extended leave and has not logged in to the computer in several months.
Which of the following is causing the login issue?

  1. Expired certificate
  2. OS update failure
  3. Service not started
  4. Application crash
  5. Profile rebuild needed

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

EAP-TLS authentication relies on digital certificates. If the user has not logged in for several months, their authentication certificate may have expired, preventing successful network login.



Which of the following authentication methods is token-based?

  1. Kerberos
  2. TACACS+
  3. Passwords
  4. TKIP

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access-Control System Plus) is a token-based authentication protocol that can use tokens (such as one-time passwords or security tokens) for authenticating users.



Which of the following is the most secure method of preventing someone from accessing a cell phone?

  1. PIN
  2. Swipe
  3. Passphrase
  4. Pattern

Explanation:

A passphrase is typically longer and more complex than a PIN, swipe, or pattern, making it the most secure method for preventing unauthorized access to a cell phone.



When a user is in the office, web pages are loading slowly on the user's phone.

  2. Sluggish response time
  3. Degraded network service
  4. Low storage space

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Degraded network service in the office, such as weak Wi-Fi signal or network congestion, is the most likely reason web pages are loading slowly on the user's phone.



A user calls the help desk to report potential malware on a computer. The anomalous activity began after the user clicked a link to a free gift card in a recent email. The technician asks the user to describe any unusual activity, such as slow performance, excessive pop-ups, and browser redirections.
Which of the following should the technician do next?

  1. Advise the user to run a complete system scan using the OS anti-malware application.
  2. Guide the user to reboot the machine into safe mode and verify whether the anomalous activities are still present.
  3. Have the user check for recently installed applications and outline those installed since the link in the email was clicked.
  4. Instruct the user to disconnect the Ethernet connection to the corporate network.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Disconnecting from the corporate network helps prevent the potential spread of malware and protects other systems while the issue is investigated.
