BTEC DIT Modern Technology Starter Adhoc and Cloud Storage Quiz

What is ad hoc networking?

• A temporary network where devices connect without a central router.

• A network that relies on a central router to connect devices.

• A network that uses fiber-optic cables for high speed communication.

• A secure, password- protected wireless network used in business.

Explain the concept of adhoc networking and provide an example.

• Adhoc networking is when devices are connected to a central server to share files.

• An example of adhoc networking is when a printer is connected directly to a computer using a USB cable.

• An example of adhoc networking is when a group of smartphones create a temporary network to share files or play multiplayer games without needing a Wi-Fi router.

• Adhoc networking is when devices connect to a cloud server to share data.

Select the one correct advantage of ad hoc networks?

• Limited and rigid

• Complexity and cost

• Inefficiency and unreliability

• Flexibility and scalability

What are the disadvantages of adhoc networking?

• Adhoc networking has no disadvantages.

• Adhoc networking can be less secure and more susceptible to interference compared to traditional networking.

• Adhoc networking is more efficient and reliable than traditional networking.

• Adhoc networking is more expensive than traditional networking.

Choose the one correct advantage of using an ad hoc network.

• It requires minimal set up and be created quickly.

• It provides a more stable connection than wired networks.

• It always offers faster speeds than wired connections.

• It relies on a central router for better security.

How does adhoc networking differ from traditional networking?

• Adhoc networking allows devices to communicate directly without a central access point.

• Adhoc networking is slower than traditional networking

• Adhoc networking requires a central access point for communication

• Adhoc networking only works with wired connections

Which of the following is an example of Cloud Storage?

• Google Drive
• Flash Drive
• Hard Drive
• Network Drive

What are the common security concerns associated with cloud storage?

• Data breaches, data loss, lack of control over data, compliance and legal issues

• Excessive data storage costs

• Hardware maintenance issues

• Software compatibility problems

What is the main purpose of data encryption?

• To make data transmission faster.

• To convert data into a secure format to prevent unauthorised access.

• To back up data in case of system failure.

• To compress files and save storage space.

Explain the concept of data encryption in cloud storage security.

• Data encryption can be easily bypassed by hackers.

• Data encryption is not necessary for cloud storage security.

• Data encryption involves converting data into a code that can only be accessed with a decryption key, ensuring that unauthorised users cannot read the data.

• Data encryption involves converting data into a physical form to store in the cloud.
