ITPEC IP October 2024 — Question 10 of 100
Autorun is the OS function that automatically starts content or programs when removable media is connected. It was designed for convenience, such as launching an installer or presenting media options. However, automatic execution can also start malicious code from an infected USB device, so organizations may disable it and scan removable media before use.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- (a) Autocorrect replaces or corrects typed text
- (b) Autocomplete predicts or completes text, commands, or form entries
- (c) Auto filter applies filtering conditions to data, commonly in spreadsheets
Key rule: Autorun concerns automatic execution triggered by inserted media; the other automatic functions assist text entry or data display and do not launch media programs.
