Answer: D is correct. The most likely security vulnerability from the available choices is theft because mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets are small and easy to steal.
A is incorrect. Updates help prevent security vulnerabilities.
B is incorrect. A global positioning system (GPS) helps locate lost devices and isn’t considered a security vulnerability.
C is incorrect. While some threats such as phishing and malware can come through email, email itself isn’t a security vulnerability. Also, phishing isn’t unique to mobile devices but instead is a security vulnerability related to uneducated users, no matter what type of device they use to access email.
Objective: 3.3 Compare and contrast methods for securing mobile devices.
