policy to grant the required permissions to the application. This application may be part of more than one code group.
You must make sure that your application receives sufficient permissions to run at all times. You must override any
policy changes made by end users that lower the permissions required by your application to run.What should you do?
A: Apply the Exclusive attribute to the application's code group on the enterprise policy level.
B: Apply the LevelFinal attribute to the application's code group on the user policy level.
C: Apply the LevelFinal attribute to the application's code group on the enterprise policy level.
D: Apply the Exclusive attribute to the application's code group on the user policy level.

3. You develop a .NET Framework application. The assembly is added to these four code groups at the Enterprise level
policy:
* All Code code group with a permission set of Everything
* Known Code code group with a permission set of Local Intranet
* Unknown Code code group with a permission set of Internet
* Restricted Code code group with a permission set of Nothing
The assembly is not a member of any other code groups.When the assembly is executed, what permissions does the
Common Language Runtime (CLR) assign to the assembly?
A: Internet
B: Everything
C: Local Intranet
D: Nothing
