Q

Password

7

A

Definition: Passwords are secret credentials that grant access to resources, websites, or accounts.
Ways to Save Passwords:
1. On Local Devices:
- Store passwords directly on your computer or smartphone.
2. In Browsers:
- Many browsers prompt you with, “Do you want to save login information?”
3. With Third-Party Tools:
- Use password managers like Bitwarden, OnePass, or LastPass for secure storage.
Best Practices:
- Use Encryption: Ensure any tool you use encrypts passwords to protect them from unauthorized access.
- Generate Strong Passwords: Third-party tools can generate secure, random passwords for new accounts.

Q

Cloud Synchronization

6

A

  • If data is encrypted in the cloud it is relatively safe
  • Common cloud services (Microsoft 365, iCloud, Google Workspaces
  • Synchronization to the cloud requires a large amount of data transfer from your device over the internet back to the cloud server (By cellular (watch out for data limit (I.E., data cap) or WIFI)
  • be aware of storage limits (if you need more you have the ability to pay for more

6

Study These Flashcards
A

- Class of software designed to apply security policies for use on mobile
devices
- Common software used VMware Workspace ONE, Microsoft Intune, Symantaec & Broadcom protection mobile, Citrix Endpoint, etc. Management, Apple Business Manager
- EMM comes in two main varieties
1. Mobile device management (MDM)
2. Mobile application management (MAM)

23
Q

MDM

6

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Mobile device management
  • Sets device-level policies for authentication, feature use, and conductivity
  • Type of software that allows you to control the device
  • also allows the administrator to remotely wipe the device if lost or stolen), lock the device, and remotely access to see what the user is seeing to help troubleshoot
  • will give you the ability to turn on or off certain feature including hardware (Disable cameras, microphone, wifi capability).
  • Can set up MFA requirements
24
Q

MAM

8

Study These Flashcards
A

Mobile Application Management (MAM):

Definition: MAM enforces policies for mobile apps that process corporate data, ensuring security and preventing unauthorized data transfer to personal apps.

Key Features:
1. Sandboxing Corporate Data:
- Creates a secure, encrypted enterprise container or workspace on the device.
- Corporate data stays isolated, with untrusted external apps blocked from accessing the container.

  1. Support for BYOD (Bring Your Own Device):
    - Enables employees to access corporate data securely on personal devices.
    - Protects corporate information through encryption and controlled access.
  2. Pre-Configured Corporate Apps:
    - Companies typically install and manage secure apps for:
    Email
    Calendar
    Contacts
    Data Storage
    - These apps are encrypted and cannot be read by other applications.

Benefits:
- Protects corporate data on personal devices.
- Ensures compliance with company security policies.
- Enhances productivity by allowing secure remote access to work resources.

25
Sandbox Solution (Enterprise) | 1
Configures an enterprise-managed container or workspace where the company’s data is stored
26
DLP | 4
Data Loss Prevention - Detects when data is being taken from a device, ensuring it’s only being used in the proper way - Whether you're using MDM or MAM - Ex: prevent sending data from email and block it.
27
ABM | 3
Apple business manager - MAM suite that allows applications from a private repository to devices that are part of the corporate network - Allows outside applications for companies to use b/c apple only allows apps from the app store
28
Managed Google play | 1
- Managed version of the Google Play store that contains apps that are distributed to employees’ devices
29
MFA | 4
Multi-Factor Authentication -Combining two or more Authentication factor categories (Ex: Knowledge and inherence) also called (2FA) - enter password and text verification - Just b/c you have two factors doesnt mean you have multi-factor. (Ex: 2 Knowlege factor (Pin and Password) is still one. Knowledge and possesion is two)
30
knowledge Factor | 5
Something you know - The simplest form of authentication and refers to something you know - Answer to a challenge - What is your password - Easiest to break (B/C just words or numbers)
31
Possesion Factor | 2
- Something you have -RSA key fob - Physical token (ID card)
32
Inherence Factor | 3
Something you are - Pieces of your body (Biometrics i.e, FInger print, Facial scan) - Most smart phones support
33
Behavior Factor | 3
- Something you do - The way you do certain things (The way you walk, talk, etc) - Voice recognition
34
Location Factor | 3
- Somewhere you are - GPS receiver - Only login when your in certain areas
35
Single-factor authentication | 2
- Using one authentication factor - Ex: Single knowledge factor
36
Authenticator | 2 - think capcha
- Is an Application that serves as a possession factor inside a mobile device - Creates random code
37
Location services | 3 types
1. Coarse positioning 2. Global positioning (GPS) 3. Indoor positioning (IPS)
38
Coarse Positioning | 4
- Oldest Method of positioning using mobile phones - Rough guess of where you are - triangulates your location with 3 or more cellular towers - not accurate can determine location within a couple of city blocks
39
GPS | 5
- Space-based radio navigation system, consisting of satellites and networks of ground stations - Needs GPS receiver most smartphone and mobile devices have one built in. - difficult for GPS to give accurate locations when you are indoors - Must enable in settings - can be used by apps to see location shopping habits, etc
40
IPS | Location Factor
- Allows a device to be used indoors to figure out the location - your device triangulates location by basing proximity to other radio sources - Uses cellular towers, Wi-Fi access points, Bluetooth beacons, and RFID beacons - Disallow IPS in location services
41
Geo-Tracking | 5
- Tracking of a location for a given amount of time - Uses any of the three location serivces (Coarse, GPS, IPS) - disable IPS and GPS to block geo-tracking - Locations can be gathered to get a pattern of where you've been or will go - A device uses your location services to track your habits across apps (Spending, searches, location, etc.)
42
Geotagging | 2
- The GPS coordinates inside of photos - disable in settings in smartphones
43
Emails will be configured with the following ports | 6
- POP3 - IMAP - SMTP - But these are not the only ports - These ports sends email in the clear (without encryption - For better security you should always configure SSL or TLS when connecting to the email servers
44
Auto configuration | Email
- When you enter email credentials (Email address and password) the system will automatically know what POP3, IMAP, and SMTP servers to use - Used by major providers like yahoo, Gmail, Outlook, etc. - Small or medium sized business use their own email server and are not set up for auto configuration
45
Configuring corporate email | Set up 4 things
1. Incoming email server (IMAP or POP3 and what is fully qualified domain name or IP address of that server mail.diotraining.com 2. Outgoing mail server (SMTP) (Same name with SMTP.diontraining.com) 3. Enable encryption (TLS or SSL 4. Ports (Choose port number (Encrypted or unencrypted (always encrypt)) - Always check with admin to make sure you have the right server names, IP addresses, and port numbers when configuring email on device
46
TLS | 3
Transport layer security - New and advanced secure version of encryption - cryptographic protocol that encrypts data sent over the internet to protect it from unauthorized access.
47
SSL | 4
Secure socket layer - a security protocol that encrypts data sent between two devices or applications to create a secure connection - SSL encrypts data so that anyone trying to intercept it will only see a jumble of characters that is almost impossible to decrypt. SSL also authenticates the devices involved in the communication to ensure they are who they claim to be. - Why use TLS over SSL?
48
Authentication Factors | 5
1. Something you know (Knowlege factor) 2. Something you are (Inheritance factor) 3. Something you have (Posession factor) 4. Something you do (Behavior factor) 5. Somewhere you are (Location factor)
