Which option should an administrator utilize to temporarily or permanently block a file?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

To temporarily or permanently block a file, the administrator should use the Deny List option. Adding a file to the Deny List prevents it from executing or being accessed on the system, providing a straightforward way to block suspicious or unwanted files.

Functionality of Deny List:

Files on the Deny List are effectively blocked from running, which can be applied either temporarily or permanently depending on security requirements.

This list allows administrators to manage potentially malicious files by preventing them from executing across endpoints.

Why Other Options Are Not Suitable:

Delete (Option A) is a one-time action and does not prevent future attempts to reintroduce the file.

Hide (Option B) conceals files but does not restrict access.

Encrypt (Option C) secures the file's data but does not prevent access or execution.

Encrypting just protects the file, not blocks it.

Deleting is not a good idea if you want to keep the file.

Wait, can you really block files permanently with a Deny List?

I’m confused about whether deleting a file counts as blocking it. I thought blocking meant preventing access, not just removing it.

I feel like encrypting a file is more about securing it rather than blocking it. Maybe the deny list is the best choice here?

I practiced a similar question where hiding a file was an option, but I don't think that's a permanent solution.

I think I remember something about a deny list being used to block files, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right term.

Deny List seems like the best choice here. That would let me control access to the file without having to delete or hide it completely.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I'll need to review the material on file management and access controls to make sure I understand the differences between these options.

Okay, let's see. Deleting the file would be permanent, so that's not the right approach. Hiding it might work, but that's not really blocking it.

Encryption? What is this, the NSA? 'Deny List' is the way to keep that file under lock and key.

But wouldn't encrypting a file just protect its contents, not block it?
