Question

A network administrator wants to enforce a company's security policy that prohibits USB drives on user workstations. Which of the following commands should the administrator run on the users' workstations?

Options

  • Adiskpart
  • Bchown
  • Cgpupdate

Explanation

To enforce a company's security policy that prohibits USB drives, a network administrator should use Group Policy to disable USB access and then run gpupdate to apply the new policy settings to workstations.

Common mistakes.

  • A. diskpart is a command-line utility used for managing disk partitions and volumes, not for enforcing system-wide security policies like disabling USB access.
  • B. chown is a Unix-like command used to change the owner of files and directories, which is irrelevant for enforcing USB drive policies on Windows workstations.
  • D. netstat displays network connections, routing tables, and network interface statistics, which is unrelated to enforcing hardware access policies like prohibiting USB drives.
