CompTIA ITF+ Practice Test

Malware infections are being caused by websites. Which of the following settings will help prevent infections caused by Internet browsing?

1. Enable cookies

2. Use public WiFi networks

3. Configure prompting before downloading content

4. Disable antivirus software

The correct answer is: Configure prompting before downloading content

"Configure prompting before downloading content" is the correct choice because it allows you to have more control over what you download from websites, giving you the opportunity to check for any potential malware or viruses before they are fully downloaded onto your device. The other options are incorrect because A: Enabling cookies can actually make your device more vulnerable to malware, as these small files can be exploited by hackers to gain access to your personal information. B: Using public WiFi networks can also increase your risk of malware infections, as these networks are often unsecured and can be easily accessed by malicious users. D: Disabling antivirus software is never a recommended option, as it leaves your device completely unprotected from potential threats.
