A user has an Android smartphone that supports full device encryption. However when the user plus into
a computer all of the files are immediately accessible. Which of the following should the user do to
enforce full device confidentiality should the phone be lost or stolen?

A.
Establish a PIN passphrase
B.
Agree to remote wipe terms
C.
Generate new media encryption keys
D.
Download the encryption control app from the store
Another badly written question with grammatical errors. Does not CompTIA proof reads the questions prior to releasing them?
“…when the user plus into a computer”…”surely they mean “when the use plugs de device into a computer”
In a very long winded way, what we want to achieve is to protect the confidentiality of the data in the smartphone.
The device is also already properly encrupted but when syncing to the desktop all files are readily available.
B- has nothing to do with it
C- Has nothing to do with it. The files are already encrypted at device level
D- Has nothing to do with it. The files are already encrypted at device level
So the best answer is to : A- Establish a PIN passphrase
This way, even when connecting to the desktop, the user will be required to enter a PIN passphrase prior to accessing the device, thus adding a layer of security.
