VoNR (Voice over New Radio) enables voice calls directly over 5G standalone networks without falling back to 4G.
- True
- False
Answer: True
VoNR allows native voice service on 5G SA (Standalone) core, eliminating need for EPS Fallback to 4G/VoLTE. Benefits: faster call setup, HD+ voice quality, simultaneous voice+data on 5G, and seamless handover. Requires 5G SA network deployment, compatible devices, and IMS integration. Key milestone in 5G maturity.
Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) in India is called e₹ (e-Rupee) and is a digital form of legal tender issued by RBI.
- True
- False
Answer: True
e₹ (e-Rupee) is India's CBDC, a digital token representing sovereign currency issued by RBI. Two types: retail (e₹-R) for public transactions via wallets, and wholesale (e₹-W) for interbank settlements. Built on distributed ledger technology but centrally managed. Aims to reduce cash dependency, enhance payment efficiency, and foster innovation.
India's National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence (#AIforAll) focuses exclusively on economic growth and not on social inclusion.
- True
- False
Answer: False
#AIforAll strategy emphasizes inclusive growth across five sectors: healthcare, agriculture, education, smart cities, and mobility. Aims to leverage AI for social empowerment (e.g., AI for farmers, teachers, doctors) alongside economic competitiveness. Establishes responsible AI principles: safety, reliability, inclusivity, and transparency.
A transistor can function both as a switch and as an amplifier in electronic circuits.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Transistors operate in three regions: cutoff (OFF switch), saturation (ON switch), and active (amplifier). In digital circuits, they switch between cutoff/saturation for binary logic. In analog circuits, active region amplifies weak signals. Fundamental building block of modern electronics from microprocessors to power controllers.
Model-based imputation handles missing data by modeling relationships between variables to predict missing values, accounting for uncertainty.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Model-based imputation (MICE, Bayesian) models relationships between variables to predict missing values, accounting for uncertainty. More robust than simple methods for complex missingness patterns.
The Indian policy for promoting research and development in emerging technologies is called National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber Physical Systems.
- True
- False
Answer: True
NM-ICPS funds R&D in AI, IoT, robotics, quantum technologies. Builds indigenous capabilities.
The technique that reduces model complexity to prevent overfitting is called Regularization.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Regularization adds penalty terms to loss function or randomly drops units during training.
The technique that enables LLMs to generate code by learning from programming language corpora is called Code LLM/Generation.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Code LLMs enable natural language to code generation, debugging, documentation.
The international organization that develops global internet governance policies is called Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers.
- True
- False
Answer: True
ICANN coordinates domain names, IP addresses, protocol parameters. Multi-stakeholder model.
The Indian initiative for promoting electric vehicle adoption through subsidies is called FAME India.
- True
- False
Answer: True
FAME provides demand incentives for EVs and charging infrastructure.
The technique that enables LLMs to generate multiple plausible responses and select the best is called Beam/Nucleus Sampling.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Advanced decoding: beam search explores multiple hypotheses, nucleus sampling truncates low-probability tokens. Balance diversity and coherence.
The initiative for global cooperation on cybersecurity capacity building is called Global Cybersecurity Index.
- True
- False
Answer: True
ITU Global Cybersecurity Index assesses national cybersecurity commitment across legal, technical, organizational, capacity building, cooperation dimensions.
The practice of simulating cyberattacks to test organizational defenses is called Red Team Testing.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Red teaming conducts adversarial simulations (cyber, physical, social) to identify gaps in detection, response, resilience. Distinct from vulnerability scanning.
Retail CBDC (e₹-R) enables programmable welfare payments with usage restrictions to prevent misuse.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Programmable CBDC allows conditional transfers for specific goods/services (food, education), enhancing policy effectiveness while requiring careful privacy design.
In-situ resource utilization (ISRU) enables production of rocket propellant from lunar water ice.
- True
- False
Answer: True
ISRU extracts water ice, electrolyzes into hydrogen/oxygen for propellant. Critical for sustainable lunar exploration and deep space missions by reducing Earth launch mass.
Quantum error correction requires encoding logical qubits across multiple physical qubits to detect and correct errors.
- True
- False
Answer: True
QEC codes (surface code, Shor code) protect quantum information from decoherence and noise. Critical for fault-tolerant quantum computing but requires significant qubit overhead.
The principle of accountability requires organizations to demonstrate compliance with data protection regulations.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Accountability (GDPR Article 5, DPDP Act Section 8) requires documented policies, training, audits, and breach response procedures. Critical for regulatory compliance.
Model extraction attacks reconstruct proprietary ML models by querying prediction APIs.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Model extraction queries API to infer model architecture/parameters, enabling intellectual property theft or adversarial example generation. Mitigation: query rate limiting, output perturbation.
Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP) secure workloads across multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
- True
- False
Answer: True
CWPP provides unified security for VMs, containers, serverless across AWS, Azure, GCP, on-premises. Critical for consistent security posture in hybrid cloud.
Continuous authentication in Zero Trust requires re-verifying user identity throughout a session based on risk context.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Continuous authentication adjusts verification requirements based on behavioral analytics, device posture, location, and other risk signals. Critical for Zero Trust security posture.
