CIW Exam 1D0-61A Topic 1 Question 52 Discussion

Actual exam question for CIW's 1D0-61A exam

Question #: 52
Topic #: 1

Marcella is looking for a very unique product online. She has found one on the XYZ Company's Web site, which is designed well and appears to be legitimate. As she navigates through the checkout process, she reaches the checkout page with this URL, which asks her to enter her credit card information:

http://XYZ.com/gp/checkout.html/ref=chk_out_TLS12B_lb?ie=UTF8&docId=10007931

Why should Marcella cancel her online transaction instead of proceeding?

ABecause the site uses 128-bit encryption, which is illegal for companies that are located overseas

BBecause the link contains abbreviations and is not completely readable, so Marcella is unsure of the server name

CBecause the link does not use SSL/TLS encryption and therefore the information Marcella enters would not be secure

DBecause the link uses SSL/TLS encryption, which Marcella knows is not compatible with the browser she is using

SSL/TLS not compatible with her browser? Haha, nice try, but I'm not falling for that one. Option C is the way to go.

128-bit encryption being illegal for overseas companies? That sounds like a made-up answer. Marcella, go with option C!

Option A does sound suspicious, I agree. Option C seems like the safest choice.

The URL looks kinda sketchy with all those weird abbreviations. Marcella should definitely cancel and find a more reputable site.

The link doesn't use SSL/TLS encryption, so Marcella's information would be at risk. This is a no-brainer.
