[Year 12 IT Apps] are we in the cone of silence or ...

[Paul Miller]

Not a great question, but in my opinion, I would say that a keyboard swipe authenticates the user and has the possibility of logging all actions on the computer. But then I would have imagined that auditor trails/logs would be the form of detection, not the keyboard swipe. Ridiculously, I would probably agree and say that of the 4 options, CCTV would be the best.

I'm still ruminating on that one...

I googled keyboard swipe and even they couldn't tell me what it was.  Is it something like they use at the bank where a card gets swiped through some magnetic reader and it reads customer details?  I can't see how that would detect unauthorised access to a pasword protected file though....

Encryption software.   Hmm   It doesn't say the password is encrypted.  So I'm not sure thats relevant either

Closed circuit TV - well it could detect if someone trying to access a file, if it was zoomed right in at the keyboard, at the right place at the right time - surely not a practical solution though!

Virus protection software - maybe, although I wouldn't have thought detecting unauthorised access to a password protected file would be its primary function.

So if I had to have a punt I would go for c.  maybe!
