CompTIA Updated SK0-005 Exam Questions and Answers by ashton

Overprovisioning is a situation where the allocated resources for a virtual machine exceed the available resources of the physical host. In this case, the storage allocated for Server 1 and Server 2 on VM01 is 8TB and 10TB respectively, which adds up to 18TB. However, the storage available on the VM01 host is only 16TB, which means there is a 2TB deficit. This can cause performance issues and errors for the virtual machines.

Leaving a USB drive in a company parking lot is a classic example of social engineering, where the bad actor relies on human curiosity to prompt someone to pick up the USB drive and insert it into their computer, potentially infecting the system with malicious code.

Social engineering (Answer D): The attacker manipulates human behavior (in this case, curiosity) to exploit security weaknesses.

Hacking (Option A): Hacking refers to directly breaching security systems or exploiting software vulnerabilities, not manipulating humans.

Insider threat (Option B): This involves a legitimate insider within the organization carrying out malicious activities, which isn’t the case here.

Phishing (Option C): Phishing typically involves emails or messages designed to deceive individuals into providing sensitive information.

RAID 0 is a configuration that splits data evenly across two or more disks without parity or mirroring. This improves performance but offers no fault tolerance. If a drive in a RAID 0 array fails, the data on the array becomes inaccessible and the server will immediately crash. The other options are not applicable to RAID 0. References: [CompTIA Server+ Certification Exam Objectives], Domain 3.0: Storage, Objective 3.2: Given a scenario, configure RAID using best practices.

Tabletop testing is a method of reviewing a DR plan without endangering company data and with a minimal time commitment. Tabletop testing involves a simulated scenario where the participants discuss their roles and responsibilities, identify potential issues, and evaluate the effectiveness of the plan. Simulated, live, and non-production testing are methods that involve more time and resources, and may pose some risks to company data. References: [CompTIA Server+ Certification Exam Objectives], Domain 6.0: Disaster Recovery, Objective 6.3: Compare and contrast various backup techniques.
