      150 Many organizations prepare for highly technical attacks and forget about the simple low-tech means of gathering information. Dumpster diving can be useful in gaining access to unauthorized information. Which of these is the easiest to implement for reducing your company's dumpster-diving risk?Data classification and printer restrictions of intellectual property.Purchase shredders for the copy rooms.Create policies and procedures for document shredding.Employ an intern to shred all printed documentation.

      154 Nathan is tasked with writing the security viewpoint of a new program that his organization is starting. Which of the following techniques make this a repeatable process and can be used for creating the best security architecture?Data classification, CIA triad, minimum security required, and risk analysisHistorical documentation, continuous monitoring, and mitigation of high risksImplementation of proper controls, performance of qualitative analysis, and continuous monitoringRisk analysis; avoidance of critical risks, threats, and vulnerabilities; and the transference of medium risk

      155 You deployed more than half of your enterprise into the cloud, but you still have concerns about data loss, unauthorized access, and encryption. What continues to be the vulnerability in cloud infrastructure that leads to the most breaches?MisconfigurationSIEMSaaSMachine learning

      156 Your company generates documents intended for public viewing. While your company wants to make these document public, it stills wants to prove the documents originated from the company. How can these documents be marked in such a way that information about their origin is maintained while not distorting the visual contents of the documents?BlowfishSteganographic watermarkingDigital signaturesPKI

      157 Charlie works for a publisher and has been tasked with protecting the electronic media they produce. This will help ensure they receive the revenue for the product they produce. What is Charlie going to implement?Single point-of-failureDigital rights managementSeparate of dutiesMandatory vacations

      158 As a security analyst, Ben is searching for a method that can examine network traffic and filter its payload based on rules. What is this method called?Network flowDLPData flow enforcementDeep packet inspection

      159 You are a security administrator reviewing network logs. You notice a UDP trend where traffic increased more than 30 percent in the past 48 hours. You use Wireshark to capture the packets and see the following: UDP 192.168.1.1:123->46.110.10.5:123. What attack scenario is most likely occurring?You are being attacked via the NTP client side and successfully exploited on 192.168.1.1.You are being attacked via the NTP server side and unsuccessfully exploited on 192.168.1.1.You are being attacked via the DNS client side and successfully exploited on 192.168.1.1.You are being attacked via the DNS server side and successfully exploited on 192.168.1.1.

      160 René is working with upper management to classify data to be shared in his collaboration tool, which will create extra security controls limiting the likelihood of a data breach. What principle of information security is he trying to enforce?ConfidentialityIntegrityAccountabilityAvailability

      161 A new objective for your department is to establish data provenance or historical data records. Moving forward, you must now document the data's source and all manipulations performed on it. Every data item will have detailed information about its origin and the ways it was influenced. Why is this crucial to the security of the data?Unauthorized changes in metadata can lead you to the wrong datasets.Authorized changes to the data warehouse can lead you to the wrong datasets.Traceable data sources make it difficult to find security breaches.Traceable data sources make it difficult to find fake data generation.

      162 Your CTO believes in the adage “Security through obscurity.” Which of the following types of obfuscation makes a program obscure to other computers?PreventionSaturationControl flowData

      163 Lynn uses a process that substitutes a sensitive data element with something that is not sensitive. She uses this process to map back to the sensitive data. What is this called?MaskingEncryptionTokenizationAuthorization

      164 Which of the following storage techniques should you deploy if you want the option to selectively provide availability to some hosts and to restrict availability to others by using a masking process?NASSANiSCSILUN

      165 Ashton's end users are using mobile devices to access confidential information on the corporate network. He needs to ensure that the information from all databases is kept secure as it is transmitted to these mobile devices. Encryption is a requirement. Of the following options, which one best describes a major concern with PII on mobile devices?Mobile devices have more processing power than other computing devices.Mobile devices typically have less processing power than other computing devices.Mobile devices often have increased complexities.Mobile devices often have difficulties to obfuscate personal data.
