Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

Since Joan is a customer of GetErDone, GetErDone must provide her with a notification of its privacy policies annually and provide her with information on how to mandate that it not share her nonpublic personal information with nonaffiliated third parties. GetErDone may not disclose any information about Jean, who is not yet a customer of the firm, unless the broker -dealer has provided Jean with its privacy policy and given her the opportunity to opt out of its ability to share her information with nonaffiliated third parties. GetErDone is not required to have provided Jean with a copy of its privacy policy when she inquired about opening an account, but it will need to provide her with one when/if she becomes a customer.

A unit investment trust is also exempt, right?

I remember that unit investment trusts have some different rules, but I can't recall if they're exempt or not.

Okay, I've got a strategy - I'll eliminate the options that don't match the key exemptions I know about, then choose the best fit from the remaining choices.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The wording seems a bit technical, so I'll need to think it through step-by-step.

I'm pretty confident I know the right answer here. Unit investment trusts are a common exemption, so I'll go with that.

This looks like a question about event correlation rules. I'll need to think about the different rule types and how they handle multiple events.

I'm a bit confused by the second statement about every feature or tool having a separate IPS incorporation. I'm not sure if that's accurate or not. I'll have to think about that one.

I'm torn between enabling sticky MAC addressing and some kind of auto MAC address learning—need to double-check which phrasing they're using here!

Hmm, this is tricky. I know AES has different key and block size options, but I'm not totally confident which ones are valid. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm feeling pretty confident about C. Those accredited investors can handle themselves, no need for extra registration. Although, I do wonder if they get any special perks, like free doughnuts or something.
