Single Answer
0Naomi wants to secure a real-time operating system (RTOS). Which of the following techniques is best suited to providing RTOS security?
Answer Options
A
Disable the web browser.
B
Install a host firewall.
C
Use secure firmware.
D
Install antimalware software.
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
Using secure firmware, as well as using an RTOS with time and space partitioning, are both common methods to help ensure RTOS security. Unlike traditional operating systems, real-time operating systems are used in applications where they need to deal with inputs immediately. That means that adding additional load like firewalls and antimalware is not a typical component in RTOS applications. For similar reasons, you're unlikely to find a web browser on most devices running an RTOS.
