Question 1

During a meeting at work, your boss starts talking about something called Desktop as a Service (DaaS).What can you likely assume about this technology based on its name?
A) Your company is using the service for free.
B) You'll access this service over the Internet.
C) You'll have to install some special software on your computer.
D) Your company is paying a lot of money for this service.

Accepted Answer

Based on the name "Desktop as a Service", it can be assumed that it is a service for accessing a desktop environment (possibly virtual) over the Internet. This implies that the service will be accessible remotely and no special software needs to be installed on the computer. There is no indication whether the service is being used for free or if the company is paying a lot of money for it.

Question 2

Cindy wants to sell her bicycle so she can upgrade to a newer one.What kind of transaction will most likely take place when Cindy sells her older bike?
A) B2B
B) G2C
C) C2C
D) B2C

Accepted Answer

The transaction that will most likely take place when Cindy sells her older bike is a C2C (consumer-to-consumer) transaction, meaning she will sell it directly to another consumer.

Question 3

Which kind of cloud service requires the most technical skill to use?
A) PaaS
B) DaaS
C) IaaS
D) SaaS

Accepted Answer

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) requires the most technical skill to use as it provides access to raw computing resources such as virtual machines, storage, and networking. Users will need to manage and configure these resources themselves, which requires technical knowledge and skill. The other cloud services (PaaS, DaaS, and SaaS) offer more managed or pre-configured services, requiring less technical skill to use.

Question 4

Which company most likely relies almost solely on B2B transactions in their course of business?
A) Shipping company
B) Cleaning services company
C) Chemical supply company
D) Retail company

Accepted Answer

A chemical supply company most likely sells their products in bulk to other businesses, rather than to individual consumers. It is rare for households to need large amounts of chemicals, so their customer base would be primarily other businesses.

Question 5

Dr.Davis wants to store backups of her patients' medical records in the cloud to ensure that information is available if anything devastating were to happen to her office building.What laws will Dr.Davis need to check as she makes security decisions for her cloud storage configuration?
A) PCI DSS
B) SSA
C) FAA
D) HIPAA

Accepted Answer

Dr. Davis will need to check HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) to ensure compliance with regulations around the protection and privacy of patients' medical records.

Question 6

Nancy runs her students' research papers through a plagiarism checker tool before grading them.What technology enables the plagiarism checker to keep improving its detection of poorly paraphrased text?
A) Natural language processing (NLP)
B) Chatbot
C) Machine learning (ML)
D) Smart speaker

Accepted Answer

Machine learning is a technology that enables an algorithm to learn and improve its performance based on existing data. In the case of plagiarism checker tools, the algorithm can analyze a large amount of text data and learn to identify patterns of poorly paraphrased text, which can help improve its detection accuracy over time. Natural language processing (NLP) can also be used in conjunction with machine learning to further enhance the plagiarism checker's ability to understand and analyze written language. However, chatbots and smart speakers are not directly related to improving plagiarism detection.

Question 7

Which of the following is NOT an example of modern-day artificial intelligence (AI) application?
A) Powering voice-based interactions between a human and a computer
B) Operating machinery without direct human oversight or intervention
C) Asking droids for critical information during a hyper-space mission
D) Providing novel insights from data analysis

Accepted Answer

Asking droids for critical information during a hyper-space mission is not an example of modern-day artificial intelligence (AI) application. This scenario is from the fictional world of Star Wars and does not reflect current AI technology.

Question 8

Frazer's mother recently experienced a stroke, and he needs to work from home for a while to help care for her.In what way will cloud computing most help Frazer in this situation?

B) He can remotely collaborate with teammates on projects, deadlines, and events.
C) He can back up data at data centers around the world.
D) He can make changes to his tax withholdings online.

Accepted Answer

Cloud computing will allow Frazer to work remotely from home and collaborate with his teammates without physically being in the office. This will be especially beneficial as he is caring for his mother and may not be able to be physically present in the office. Option A is not relevant to his current situation. Option C may be useful for data backup, but it is not the most pressing concern when caring for his mother. Option D is not relevant to his work situation.

C) Measured service
D) On-demand self-service

Accepted Answer

Rapid elasticity is the cloud characteristic that supports automatic adjustment of resources to handle increased demand. This means that the cloud infrastructure can quickly and easily scale up or down as needed to ensure that the application or service remains performant, without the need for manual intervention.

Question 10

Who enforces PCI compliance for merchants who accept credit card payments from customers?
A) The Department of Defense
B) Merchants
C) Credit card companies
D) Cardholders

Accepted Answer

Credit card companies enforce PCI compliance for merchants who accept credit card payments from customers. This includes Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover, who have all established their own PCI compliance programs.

The Department of Defense and cardholders do not enforce PCI compliance.

Question 11

To work with AI technologies, you must understand how AI commands are programmed into the computer and phrase your commands exactly the way the AI system expects.

Accepted Answer

AI technologies often use natural language processing, allowing users to interact with them using everyday language rather than requiring precise, pre-programmed commands.

Brian can access the application through his laptop's browser since his employer has made it available through the cloud. He doesn't need to buy the expensive software or a more powerful computer, nor does he need to install the application on his laptop.

Question 13

Which learning model allows an AI system to create its own categories of data without labeling those categories?
A) Reinforcement learning
B) Unsupervised learning
C) Artificial learning
D) Supervised learning

Accepted Answer

Unsupervised learning allows an AI system to find patterns and relationships within the data without the need for labeled examples. This type of learning model enables the system to create its own categories of data without human intervention. Reinforcement learning involves a reward-based system of learning where an AI system learns by taking actions and receiving feedback. Artificial learning is not a commonly used term in the field of AI. Supervised learning requires labeled data to learn from and is not suitable for creating categories without labels.

Question 14

Which of these e-commerce job roles could most likely be performed remotely from home or even from another country?
A) Operations manager
B) Web developer
C) Hand picker
D) Truck driver

Accepted Answer

A web developer could most likely perform their job remotely from home or another country. The other job roles listed require physical presence and cannot be done effectively from a remote location.

Question 15

Which learning model allows an AI system to develop its own strategies for solving problems or completing tasks?
A) Unsupervised learning
B) Artificial learning
C) Supervised learning
D) Reinforcement learning

Accepted Answer

Reinforcement learning allows an AI system to learn by trial and error through receiving rewards or punishments for certain actions, allowing it to develop its own strategies for solving problems or completing tasks.

Question 16

Business activities completed on a local, private network are examples of e-business even if cloud-hosted resources are not involved.

Accepted Answer

SaaS solutions are designed to be compliant with PCI DSS and other security standards, which means that they can help Kevin meet his compliance obligations without needing to invest in a lot of specialized security technology or staff. Additionally, SaaS solutions often have built-in security features such as encryption, access controls, and monitoring, which can further improve Kevin's security posture.
