- A
Enable 'Sticky Keys' and configure the 'Ease of Access' settings
Why wrong: Sticky Keys and Ease of Access are accessibility features, not related to automatic logon or kiosk mode.
- B
Configure 'Automatic logon' in the registry and enable 'Assigned Access' for the kiosk account
Automatic logon allows the system to boot directly to the desktop, and Assigned Access restricts the user to a single app, creating a proper kiosk environment.
- C
Set the 'Shutdown: Allow system to be shut down without having to log on' policy
Why wrong: This policy affects shutdown behavior, not automatic logon or application restriction.
- D
Enable 'User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode'
Why wrong: This setting controls UAC behavior for administrators and is unrelated to kiosk configuration.
220-1102 Windows Security Settings Practice Question
This 220-1202 practice question tests your understanding of windows security settings. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A technician is configuring a Windows 10 kiosk system that will run a single application in a public library. The kiosk must automatically log on and start the app without any user interaction. Which security setting combination is required?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Configure 'Automatic logon' in the registry and enable 'Assigned Access' for the kiosk account
This question tests knowledge of kiosk mode configuration. Windows 10 supports 'Assigned Access' which can be configured to automatically log on a specified user account and launch a single app. This requires enabling the 'Automatic logon' setting in the registry or via the 'netplwiz' tool, and then configuring Assigned Access for that account.
Key principle: NAT direction and interface roles matter as much as the IP address mapping. Inside/outside designation controls which traffic is translated.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Enable 'Sticky Keys' and configure the 'Ease of Access' settings
Why it's wrong here
Sticky Keys and Ease of Access are accessibility features, not related to automatic logon or kiosk mode.
- ✓
Configure 'Automatic logon' in the registry and enable 'Assigned Access' for the kiosk account
Why this is correct
Automatic logon allows the system to boot directly to the desktop, and Assigned Access restricts the user to a single app, creating a proper kiosk environment.
Related concept
Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
- ✗
Set the 'Shutdown: Allow system to be shut down without having to log on' policy
Why it's wrong here
This policy affects shutdown behavior, not automatic logon or application restriction.
- ✗
Enable 'User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode'
Why it's wrong here
This setting controls UAC behavior for administrators and is unrelated to kiosk configuration.
Common exam traps
Common exam trap: NAT rules depend on direction and matching traffic
NAT is not only about the public address. The inside/outside interface roles and the ACL or rule that matches traffic are just as important.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
NAT questions usually test address translation, overload/PAT behaviour, static mappings and whether the right traffic is being translated. Read the interface direction and address terms carefully.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
- PAT allows many inside hosts to share one public address using ports.
- Inside local and inside global describe the private and translated addresses.
- NAT ACLs identify traffic for translation, not always security filtering.
TExam Day Tips
- Identify inside and outside interfaces first.
- Check whether the scenario needs static NAT, dynamic NAT or PAT.
- Do not confuse NAT matching ACLs with normal packet-filtering intent.
Key takeaway
NAT direction and interface roles matter as much as the IP address mapping. Inside/outside designation controls which traffic is translated.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A small business has 20 workstations on the 192.168.1.0/24 network and one public IP from its ISP. The router uses PAT (NAT overload) so all 20 devices share one public address using different source ports. NAT questions test whether you understand the four address terms and which direction each translation applies.
What to study next
Got this wrong? Here's your next step.
Review the four NAT address types (inside local, inside global, outside local, outside global), PAT port overload, and static vs dynamic NAT use cases. Then practise related 220-1202 NAT questions on configuration and troubleshooting.
