A company wants to verify that the software the company is deploying came from the vendor the company purchased the software from. Which of the following is the best way for the company to confirm this information?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Validating the code signature is the best way to verify software authenticity, as it ensures that the software has not been tampered with and that it comes from a verified source. Code signatures are digital signatures applied by the software vendor, and validating them confirms the software's integrity and origin. Reference: CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 course content and official CompTIA study resources.
