Episode 85 — Safe Software Installation and Licensing Models
In this episode, we discuss safe software installation practices and licensing models, both of which are covered in the CompTIA IT Fundamentals (ITF+) certification exam. You’ll learn how to verify software sources, check digital signatures, and follow proper installation procedures to avoid introducing malware or vulnerabilities.
We’ll also explain licensing types — including open source, proprietary, subscription, and perpetual — and the legal and ethical considerations for each. Knowing these concepts will help you answer exam questions and make responsible software decisions in the workplace. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
