Question 14

The term “Push notification” is used to describe information delivery from a server to a client performed without a specific request from the client.

Answer 14

True

Question 15

Context-aware authentication strengthens the authentication process by requiring the standard user credentials (username and password) to be coupled with additional items that can be used in the authentication process, such as:

Answer 15

• Connection type used
• Time of the day login patterns
• Geolocation
• Type of device used
• IP address
  All of the above

Question 16

In the context of MDM, the isolation of corporate applications and data from other parts of the mobile device is referred to as:

Answer 16

** Containerization **

MDM containerization refers to the process of segregating personal and corporate data on personal devices by creating a logical container to enhance corporate data security

Question 17

A mobile security solution that enables separate controls over the user and enterprise data is called:

Answer 17

** Storage segmentation **

Containerization uses technical methods to store the data. This is often referred to as storage segmentation and it stores the data in a secure container. In this context, a secure container is typically an area on the device protected by both authentication and encryption

Question 18

MicroSD HSM is an example of a dedicated cryptographic processor residing on a miniature flash memory card. MicroSD HSM can be used to create, manage, and store cryptographic keys on any device with a matching card slot.

Answer 18

True

MicroSD HSM is a hardware security module coming in the form of a microSD card. It provides security services driven by hardware-based crypto engines, including encryption, key generation and key life cycle management, digital signature, authentication and other cryptographic functions.

Question 19

Implementing full device encryption is one of the methods for securing sensitive data on a smartphone. When enabled, this type of encryption works in conjunction with the phone’s screen lock, i.e. to decrypt the phone (which stays encrypted whenever the phone is locked), a user must first unlock the screen. On Android devices, the unlocking methods include entering a PIN, password, or swipe pattern. Apple devices use passcode and biometric fingerprint sensor (a.k.a. Touch ID).

Answer 19

True

Question 21

Which of the following answers refers to a dedicated mobile app management software?

Answer 21

** MAM **

Mobile application management (MAM) is software that secures and enables IT control over enterprise applications on end users’ corporate and personal smartphones and tablets. MAM software allows IT administrators to apply and enforce corporate policies on mobile apps and limit the sharing of corporate data among apps.

Question 22

A type of mobile OS implementing more strict, Linux-based access security controls is known as:

Answer 22

** SEAndroid **

SEAndroid refers to Security Enhancements for Android, a security solution for Android that identifies and addresses critical gaps

Question 23

Installing mobile apps from trusted sources (e.g. Apple’s App Store for iOS devices, or Google Play for Android devices) instead of third-party application stores decreases malware-related security risks.
