Which RAID level provides both striping and mirroring, offering a balance of performance and fault tolerance?
Answer: RAID 10
RAID 10 (1+0) combines mirroring and striping, tolerating multiple drive failures as long as no mirror loses both drives.
In a document imaging system, what is 'version control' primarily designed to manage?
Answer: Successive edits to a document, preserving prior states
Version control tracks document revisions over time, allowing users to view, compare, or restore earlier document states.
Which security principle dictates that users should only have access to the documents necessary for their job function?
Answer: Least privilege
The least privilege principle restricts user permissions to the minimum required to perform their tasks, reducing exposure from compromised accounts.
What is the primary advantage of content-addressable storage (CAS) in a document archive?
Answer: Automatic deduplication by storing each unique content only once
CAS uses a hash of the content as the storage address, automatically preventing duplicate copies of identical documents.
A healthcare organization must ensure patient document images remain unaltered after storage. Which technology best satisfies this requirement?
Answer: WORM (Write Once Read Many) storage
WORM storage physically or logically prevents modification or deletion of data after it is written, ensuring document integrity.
When classifying documents for access control, which attribute is typically used to group documents with similar sensitivity levels?
Answer: Document classification label (e.g., Confidential, Public)
Classification labels group documents by sensitivity, enabling security policies to grant or restrict access based on those labels.
Which retrieval method allows a user to find documents by drawing conceptual relationships between terms, even without exact keyword matches?
Answer: Semantic or concept-based search
Semantic search uses natural language processing and ontologies to match documents based on meaning and context, not just literal keywords.
