Makes sense to pick D here. MDM can lock down app installs on company devices and enforce rules before anything bad gets added. Not 100% but that's what most exam prep guides call out for stopping these from happening in the first place. Agree?
Not convinced it's C. D handles app whitelisting for company phones, anti-malware (C) is more about detection after the fact.
D imo, since rolling out MDM is really how you control which apps get installed on company phones. Anti-malware (C) just catches stuff after it's already there. Pretty standard in most A+ prep books. Disagree?
D here, since only MDM gives you control over what users can install on their phones. Anti-malware (C) might catch some bad apps but won't prevent all unauthorized installs in the first place. Pretty sure that's what they want.
Had something like this in a mock before, it's D. MDM is what actually enforces what gets installed on company phones.
Its D here. MDM can actually lock down app installs on mobile devices, so employees can't just put whatever they want. Group Policy (A) wouldn't work since that's for Windows, and PAM (B) is about privileged access, not app blocking. The only edge case is if it's a BYOD scenario, but question says company-owned. Pretty sure D's right unless they're hiding some tricky condition.
Probably D since MDM can actually stop users from adding new apps on managed phones. C just scans, doesn’t enforce. Anyone disagree?
D , since MDM actually lets you control app installs on company-owned devices. Group Policy doesn't work for mobile OS, and anti-malware (C) is more reactive. Pretty sure unless it's BYOD, D is the move here.
C for this, seen similar in practice questions. Anti-malware should stop unwanted apps from getting installed, right?
D , saw a similar question in exam reports and it was MDM for company phones every time.
Be respectful. No spam.
