A user has detected that one of the virtual machines in a computer is infected with a virus. Which statement about the situation is likely to be true?
- The host operating system is not necessarily infected with a virus.
- The host machine operating system has a bug.
- All of the virtual machines running on the host are infected with a virus.
- The host machine antivirus program requires an update.
Explanation & Hint:
The virtual machines work separately from the host operating systems, even though they use the same system resources. The weaknesses and vulnerabilities from one virtual machine are not spread to other virtual machines or the host operating system. |
