Which of the following would help prevent threats from CDs or DVDs?
  1. Restricting user permissions.
  2. Setting strong passwords.
  3. Changing default user names.
  4. Disabling autorun.
Explanation
Answer: D - Disabling autorun would help prevent threats from CDs or DVDs.

Key Takeaway: Autorun is meant to be a helpful feature that automatically runs a program upon insertion of a certain type of media-for instance, a DVD playing software program automatically starts when you insert the DVD. If a virus hijacks this process, however, you could be in for a tough time when you insert that DVD the next time.
