Exam CAS-004 topic 1 question 430 discussion

Ans is A. The solution that best meets the requirements of remotely managing laptop devices and securely locking them down is: A. MDM (Mobile Device Management). MDM solutions help manage and secure devices, enforce standard configurations, allow for custom configurations, and can provide access to enterprise systems from various device types. While VDI (D) could also provide remote access, it may not directly address the requirement for cutting down on patch management as effectively as MDM.

While VDI (D) could also provide remote access, it may not directly address the requirement for cutting down on patch management as effectively as MDM.

Cut down on patch management: With VDI, the virtual desktops are managed centrally. Patches and updates can be applied to the master image, which then gets propagated to all virtual desktops. This significantly reduces the complexity and workload of patch management. Standard configurations: VDI allows for the deployment of standardized desktop images, ensuring consistency across all user desktops. Allow for custom resource configurations: VDI can be configured to allocate different levels of resources (CPU, memory, storage) based on the needs of different users or groups. Provide access to the enterprise system from multiple types of devices: Users can access their virtual desktops from various devices, including laptops, tablets, and smartphones, as long as they have a network connection.

D - VDI A - This is for smartphones and tablets B - Used more for software testing than remote management C - Yes, a virtualization technology, but doesn't meet all the requirements
