Which of the following ensures data is unrecoverable on a lost or stolen mobile device?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

To ensure data is unrecoverable on a lost or stolen mobile device, the best solution is:

Remote wipe: This feature allows the device owner or IT administrator to remotely erase all data on the device, ensuring that it cannot be recovered by unauthorized users.

Device encryption: While important for protecting data, encryption alone does not remove data from the device.

Data backup: Ensures data is saved elsewhere but does not make it unrecoverable on the lost or stolen device.

Fingerprint reader: Provides security for accessing the device but does not affect data recovery if the device is compromised.


CompTIA A+ 220-1102 Exam Objectives, Section 2.7: Explain common methods for securing mobile and embedded devices.

I think C) Data backup is important, but it doesn't ensure data is unrecoverable on a lost or stolen device.

Ah, the age-old question: how to ensure my cat videos are truly secure. Remote wipe, obviously. Can't have those falling into the wrong paws.

I'm not sure, but I think B) Remote wipe could also be a good option to ensure data is unrecoverable.

Fingerprint reader? I don't know, sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. Give me that good old-fashioned remote wipe any day.

I agree with Coleen, because device encryption makes the data unreadable without the correct key.
