Protecting Internal Networks:
* Unlicensed software can pose significant risks, including malware, data breaches, and legal liabilities.
Preventing its installation ensures a secure network environment.
Why Preventing Unlicensed Software is Correct:
* This practice reduces vulnerabilities and ensures compliance with software licensing laws, safeguarding the network.
Eliminating Incorrect Options:
* A. Warn employees by sharing suspicious emails:While useful, it's a reactive measure and less effective as a preventive strategy.
* C. Reveal passwords only to supervisors and managers:Passwords should never be shared, regardless of rank.
* D. Give all employees access to the organization's firewall:This would compromise the firewall's effectiveness.
