Question #: 45
Topic #: 5
A technician needs to configure laptops so that only administrators can enable virtualization technology if needed. Which of the following should the technician configure?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
Virtualization settings are typically found within the BIOS/UEFI firmware configuration. To prevent unauthorized users from changing these settings, the technician should set a BIOS password. This ensures only administrators with the password can access or modify BIOS settings, including virtualization support.
B: The guest account is a user-level feature in Windows and doesn't control BIOS access.
C: A screen lock prevents casual access to the desktop but doesn't protect firmware settings.
D: AutoRun controls how media and devices behave when inserted - unrelated to BIOS security.
Reference:
CompTIA A+ 220-1102 Objective 2.2: Compare and contrast security measures and administrative controls.
