A GIS team installs extra seats of mapping software by sharing one license key across field tablets. What compliance problem does this primarily create?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
One paid key on ten tablets is like one concert ticket used by ten people at the gate. The vendor's license is intellectual property; oversharing seats breaks it. That is a compliance problem, not a cable-lock or bandwidth story.
Full Explanation
Software licensing and intellectual-property rules constrain how many installations or users a purchased entitlement covers. Sharing a single commercial license key across multiple field tablets beyond the licensed seat count constitutes unauthorized use and IP/licensing noncompliance. CISSP Domain 1 treats such licensing issues as part of the legal and regulatory compliance landscape, distinct from physical security or network-availability concerns.
