Hardware RAID Level 0: (Select all that apply) - Requires a minimum of 2 drives to implement - Is also known as disk striping - Decreases reliability (failure of any disk in the array destroys the entire array) - Is also referred to as disk mirroring - Offers less volume capacity in comparison to RAID 1 - Requires at least 3 drives to implement - Is suitable for systems where performance has higher priority than fault tolerance - Offers improved reliability by creating identical data sets on each drive (failure of one drive does not destroy the array as each drive contains identical copy of the data)
- Requires a minimum of 2 drives to implement - Is also known as disk striping - Decreases reliability (failure of any disk in the array destroys the entire array) - Is suitable for systems where performance has higher priority than fault tolerance

An authenticator application is a software that generates additional authentication token (in the form of a random code) used in multi-step verification process. True False
True
Authentication process can be based on various categories of authentication factors and attributes. Authentication factors include unique physical traits of each individual such as fingerprints ("something you are"), physical tokens such as smart cards ("something you have"), or usernames and passwords ("something you know"). The categories of authentication attributes include geolocation ("somewhere you are"), user-specific activity patterns, such as keyboard typing style ("something you can do"), revealing something about an individual, e.g. wearing an ID badge ("something you exhibit"), or proving the relation with a trusted third party ("someone you know"). Multifactor authentication systems require implementation of authentication factors from two or more distinct categories. True False
True
In computer security, the term "Biometrics" refers to physical characteristics of the human body that can be used for identification and access control purposes. True False
True
