Which of the following is a true statement about protecting the confidentiality of client-related e-mail?
 
  1. Encryption keys prevent viruses or Trojan horses from being attached to e-mail messages.
  2. Digital credentials utilize biometric means, such as thumbprint, to verify the identity of the sender.
  3. Public key infrastructure (PKI) uses unique codes to confirm the identity of those sending e-mails.
  4. Viruses may be transmitted by e-mail messages, so each e-mail should be separately scanned prior to being read.

Question 2

The members of a steering committee should be carefully selected. Which committee would be most effective?
 
  1. A four-member committee consisting entirely of high-level executive board members
  2. A five-member committee consisting of one upper-level management representative from each department
  3. A 15-member committee consisting of multidisciplinary representatives from each unit/department
  4. A 12-member committee consisting of staff nurse representatives from each unit

Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: PKI uses unique codes to verify the identity of the person who is e-mailing the sender. Viruses are transmitted using attachments (not e-mail messages) and may not be picked up with anti-virus programs once messages are encrypted. Encryption is used to prevent unauthorized people from reading e-mail.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The correct answer is a 15-member committee consisting of multidisciplinary representatives from each unit/department. To be effective, a steering committee should be large enough to make decisions, but small enough to be effective. All those affected should be represented with a multidisciplinary team membership.
