Client side Virtualization

A law firm needs to test new legal software in an isolated environment without affecting their production systems. What virtualization use case best describes this requirement?

• Cross-platform virtualization

• Legacy software support

• Sandboxing

• Desktop virtualization

What is the main difference between Type 1 and Type 2 hypervisors?

• Type 1 supports more guest OSs

• Type 2 hypervisors are more expensive

• Type 1 installs directly on hardware, Type 2 on host OS

• Type 2 hypervisors are faster

A development team needs to run both Windows and Linux applications on the same workstation. Which virtualization technology would be most appropriate?

• Server-side virtualization

• Application virtualization

• Client-side virtualization with guest OSs

• Container virtualization only

True or False: A 32-bit hypervisor can support 64-bit guest operating systems.

• True

• False

What is the primary security risk associated with virtual machine escaping?

• Guest OS accessing other VMs or host

• Unauthorized VM creation

• Weak guest OS passwords

• Insufficient VM memory allocation

Container virtualization differs from traditional VMs primarily in what way?

• Containers are slower than VMs

• Containers share the host OS kernel

• Containers require more memory

• Containers cannot run applications

What is the primary purpose of VM snapshots in virtualization environments?

• Increase VM performance

• Capture point-in-time VM state for rollback

• Provide network connectivity

• Enable VM migration between hosts

True or False: Each guest OS in a virtualized environment requires regular patching and antivirus protection just like physical systems.

• True

• False

Which virtualization security practice helps prevent unauthorized VM deployment (VM sprawl)?

• Installing antivirus on all VMs

• Using encrypted virtual disks

• Implementing VM template controls and monitoring

• Enabling VM snapshots
