Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

BitLocker Encryption can be used in several ways to secure data on a computer's hard drive. Option A is correct because BitLocker can use a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to securely store cryptographic keys, ensuring that the computer itself is authenticated before the operating system loads. Option C is correct because BitLocker allows for user authentication through the use of a USB flash drive that contains a startup key. This method does not rely on the TPM. Option D is also correct because BitLocker can be configured to use both a PIN (for user authentication) and a TPM (for computer authentication), providing an additional layer of security by requiring both something the user knows (the PIN) and something the computer has (the TPM). Option B is incorrect because BitLocker does not use certificates for user authentication; it relies on other methods such as TPM, PIN, or USB flash drives.
