Answer 1

Best Practices that should the security administrator suggests :
B) Corporate applications should be accessed on corporate Wi-Fi only. This will ensure that all the confidential data is getting aired in LAN which is maintained and secured by the company. Company can maintain the security of there server to prevent data breach. Also, no outsider will get the company details.

D) Devices should employ full disk encryption. If the confidential data of a company gets leaked to a use somehow. It will remain encrypted and he may get no access to it or he may not understand what information that data contains.

Other Practices which may he suggests :
C) The number of social media sites accessible from the corporate network should be limited. Most of the people use social networking sites for file and message sharing. What if there are very few platform available to share things on the company network. They will have to switch to there own network to enjoy full features and they must leave company network.

Option that doesn't suit well :
A) Mobile Geo-tagging and GPS should be disabled : To get connected to company network one must get in the range of the network. This will help in to get the Geo-location of the user. So, this suggestion might fail for providing better security.

E) Bluetooth on mobile devices should be permanently disabled : Bluetooth have very few meters of range and very few bandwidth of data transfer. Data leaks from Bluetooth is not quite obvious.
