Q241. Which of the following is the process of verifying and allowing a user on a network?
A. Encryption
B. Authorization
C. Authentication
D. Communication
Answer: C
Explanation: Authentication is the process of verifying and allowing a user on a network. Answer: B is incorrect. Authorization involves verifying that an authenticated user has permission to perform certain operations or access specific resources. Authentication, therefore, must precede authorization. Answer: A is incorrect. Encryption is the process of conversion of data into a form that cannot be easily understood by unauthorized persons. The encrypted data is known as cipher text. The cipher text can be converted back into its original form by a process known as decryption. Decryption is the reverse process of encryption. Answer: D is incorrect. Communication is the activity of conveying meaningful information.

The number of tapes required to back up data should be minimized. The number of tapes required to restore data should be minimized. Which of the following backup policies will you choose?
A. A full backup once a month and an incremental backup daily
B. A full backup every Friday and differential backups from Monday to Thursday
C. A differential backup every night
D. A full backup every Friday and incremental backups from Monday to Thursday
Answer: B
Explanation: In order to minimize the number of tapes required to back up data, you should perform a full backup every Friday. Performing differential backups from Monday to Thursday will reduce the number of tapes required to restore data. This is because in the event of data loss, you will have to restore only the last full backup and the last differential backup.

Q244. Your employer is a small private practice of several physicians who treat many patients who use Part B of Medicare. The physician and nursing staff would like to replace the current system of paper medical records with an electronic medical record system, but are concerned about the costs of installation and training. You know of a program with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid that will distribute incentive payments to eligible providers who adopt electronic medical records and can show what?
A. Meaningful Use
B. Improving public health
C. Patient demand
D. Financial need
Answer: A
Explanation: Meaningful use is a goal of the HITECH provision of the ARRA. Meaningful use means making sure that certified electronic health records are deployed in the useful way that improved the quality of healthcare. Meaningful use as defined in HITECH involved three main components, 1) The use of a certified Electronic health record (EHR) in a meaningful manner, such as e-prescribing. 2) The use of a certified EHR technology for electronic exchange of health information to improve quality of care. 3) The use of a certified EHR technology to submit clinical quality and other measures. Answer: D is incorrect. Financial need is not part of the requirements for a HITECH incentive payment. Meaningful use is required for the EHR incentive programs for Medicare and Medicaid providers, new EHR technology must be adopted, new EHR technology must be implemented or new EHR technology must be upgraded to quality for an incentive payment. Answer: C is incorrect. Although many patients like the convenience and easy access and portability that electronic medical records provide, it is not a stated goal of the HITECH incentive program. Answer: B is incorrect. Improving public health is one of the end objectives of the HITECH incentive plan and is included as one of the core criteria that a facility may choose to address to prove meaningful use to receive incentive payments, but it not a requirement at the same level of importance as the principle of meaningful use.

A. Enterprise Model
B. Network Model
C. Hierarchal Model
D. Object Oriented Model
Answer: D
Explanation: The object oriented model is essentially a collection of objects, related by encapsulation (an object such as a patient has certain characteristics) or inheritance (an object such as a resident inherits characteristics from a physician object). There is no primary key in this model. Answer: C is incorrect. Hierarchal model is incorrect as this database model uses the format of a typical parent-child arrangement, whereas, one piece of information can have many subordinated pieces. Answer: B is incorrect. Network model is incorrect as this model is designed to allow the child to have more than one parent. This model is often referred to as the many to many model. Answer: A is incorrect. Enterprise model is meant as a distractor, the enterprise database model does not exist.
Q247. Which of the following types of attacks entices a user to disclose personal information such as social security number, bank account details, or credit card number?
A. Replay attack
B. Password guessing attack
C. Phishing
D. Spoofing
Answer: C
Explanation: Phishing is a type of scam that entices a user to disclose personal information such as social security number, bank account details, or credit card number. An example of phishing attack is a fraudulent e-mail that appears to come from a user's bank asking to change his online banking password. When the user clicks the link available on the e-mail, it directs him to a phishing site which replicates the original bank site. The phishing site lures the user to provide his personal information. Answer: D is incorrect. Spoofing is a technique that makes a transmission appear to have come from an authentic source by forging the IP address, email address, caller ID, etc. In IP spoofing, a hacker modifies packet headers by using someone else's IP address to hide his identity. However, spoofing cannot be used while surfing the Internet, chatting on-line, etc. because forging the source IP address causes the responses to be misdirected. Answer: A is incorrect. A replay attack is a type of attack in which attackers capture packets containing passwords or digital signatures whenever packets pass between two hosts on a network. In an attempt to obtain an authenticated connection, the attackers then resend the captured packet to the system. In this type of attack, the attacker does not know the actual password, but can simply replay the captured packet. Answer: B is incorrect. A password guessing attack occurs when an unauthorized user tries to log on repeatedly to a computer or network by guessing usernames and passwords. Many password guessing programs that attempt to break passwords are available on the Internet. Following are the types of password guessing attacks: Brute force attack Dictionary attack
Q248. Part of the medical workflow process is when dictated voice-recorded reports about patient encounters are converted into text. This process is called.
A. Billing
B. Transcription
C. Auditing
D. Coding
Answer: B
Explanation: Medical transcription, done by transcriptionists, is the process of physician-dictated voice reports being converted into text files and incorporated into the medical record. Transcriptionist need to correctly format this text files and understand medical terminology to correctly transcribe the physician's words. Answer: D is incorrect. Coding is a process used to convert the stated diagnoses and procedures performed upon the patient into a system of numerical codes using the ICD9, ICD10, CPT and MSDRG systems. Coding is used in analysis and insurance billing. Answer: A is incorrect. Billing is the process of sending an invoice for services rendered to an insurance company, patient or third party payer for the health care organization to receive reimbursement for services rendered. Answer: C is incorrect. Auditing can mean several things in a healthcare environment, from a medical audit involving a quality improvement process regarding a review of care in the facility, and security audits involving the effectiveness of security measures and release of information guidelines. Neither of these involved the conversion of dictation into text files.
Q249. CORRECT TEXT
Fill in the blank with an appropriate term. is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting guessing and brute-force attacks. Password strengthis a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting guessing and brute-force attacks.
Answer: In its usual form, it
Explanation: estimates how many trials an attacker who does not have direct access to the password would need, on an average, to correctly guess it. The strength of a password is a function of length, complexity, and randomness.Using strong passwords lowers the overall risk of a security breach, but strong passwords do not replace the need for other effective security controls. The effectiveness of a password of a given strength is strongly determined by the design and implementation of the authentication system software; particularly, how frequently password guesses can be tested by an attacker and how securely information on user passwords is stored and transmitted. Risks are also posed by the several means of breaching computer security which are not related to password strength. Such means include wiretapping, phishing, keystroke logging, social engineering, dumpster diving, side-channel attacks, and software vulnerabilities.
