sions? Choose all that apply.

a. NTFS security is effective only when a user gains access to the file or folder

over the network.

b. NTFS security is effective when a user gains access to the file or folder on the

local computer.

c. NTFS permissions specify which users and groups can gain access to files and

folders and what they can do with the contents of the file or folder.

d. NTFS permissions can be used on all file systems available with Windows XP

Professional.

The correct answers are B and C. NTFS security is locally based and so affects all users

accessing a resource, whether those users are logged on locally or accessing the resource

from the network. A is not correct because NTFS security does not only apply to network users.

D is not correct because NTFS permissions can be used only on partitions formatted with

NTFS.
