Certified Information Systems Security Professional CISSP Practice Test 16

Question 150

A database has no documented purpose for collecting national identity numbers. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Inspect a privacy notice without identifying and removing unnecessary input fields
  2. Inspect forms and schemas for elimination of unused sensitive fields
  3. Verify only authenticated staff can view records rather than measuring collected data minimization
  4. Confirm database encryption at rest while unused identity numbers are still collected

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Avoiding collection removes exposure earlier than adding encryption. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Inspect forms and schemas for elimination of unused sensitive fields.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Avoiding collection removes exposure earlier than adding encryption. The proposed check, “Inspect a privacy notice without identifying and removing unnecessary input fields”, misses the relevant outcome; “Inspect forms and schemas for elimination of unused sensitive fields” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

C:

Avoiding collection removes exposure earlier than adding encryption. The proposed check, “Verify only authenticated staff can view records rather than measuring collected data minimization”, misses the relevant outcome; “Inspect forms and schemas for elimination of unused sensitive fields” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

D:

“Confirm database encryption at rest while unused identity numbers are still collected” does not show the required outcome: inspect forms and schemas for elimination of unused sensitive fields. That test matters because avoiding collection removes exposure earlier than adding encryption.

Question 151

A cloud storage volume is recycled with recoverable residual data. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Rely on host-level access-control lists while recycling the underlying media without sanitization
  2. Delete the cloud volume's filesystem directory and immediately allocate the storage to another tenant
  3. Use an approved media sanitization method appropriate to the technology and sensitivity
  4. Reformat the volume quickly without validating residual-data confidentiality assurance

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The security distinction is that deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence. “Rely on host-level access-control lists while recycling the underlying media without sanitization” addresses neither the required “Use an approved media sanitization method appropriate to the technology and sensitivity” action nor its supporting evidence: “Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment”.

B:

Deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence. “Delete the cloud volume's filesystem directory and immediately allocate the storage to another tenant” does not supply that control; “Use an approved media sanitization method appropriate to the technology and sensitivity” addresses the identified gap, and “Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment” verifies the result.

D:

Deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence. “Reformat the volume quickly without validating residual-data confidentiality assurance” does not supply that control; “Use an approved media sanitization method appropriate to the technology and sensitivity” addresses the identified gap, and “Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment” verifies the result.

Question 152

A cloud storage volume is recycled with recoverable residual data. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Confirm the drive mounts as empty without a validated sanitization method
  2. Review a deletion job success flag but not the media-specific sanitization evidence
  3. Check that the next tenant has separate credentials while recoverable blocks may remain
  4. Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Confirm the drive mounts as empty without a validated sanitization method” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment”, reflecting the requirement that deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence.

B:

“Review a deletion job success flag but not the media-specific sanitization evidence” is insufficient to demonstrate that “Use an approved media sanitization method appropriate to the technology and sensitivity” works. Deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence. The decisive test is “Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment”.

C:

“Check that the next tenant has separate credentials while recoverable blocks may remain” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Verify sanitization record and method assurance before redeployment”, reflecting the requirement that deleting a filesystem directory does not eliminate data remanence.

Question 153

A company changes data processor but does not reconcile retained copies. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Update processor inventories and enforce return or verified destruction
  2. Assume the incoming processor inherits custody records and no return-or-destroy confirmation is necessary
  3. Rotate transfer credentials while leaving retained customer exports with the departed vendor
  4. Terminate the old data-processor agreement without tracing copies held by its subprocessors

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to review processor attestations and data-flow register updates.

Incorrect Answers

B:

“Assume the incoming processor inherits custody records and no return-or-destroy confirmation is necessary” would not establish the protection described: a change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. The necessary change is “Update processor inventories and enforce return or verified destruction” with the verification “Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates”.

C:

“Rotate transfer credentials while leaving retained customer exports with the departed vendor” leaves the essential control missing: a change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. The direct corrective action is “Update processor inventories and enforce return or verified destruction”, validated by the acceptance check “Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates”.

D:

“Terminate the old data-processor agreement without tracing copies held by its subprocessors” would not establish the protection described: a change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. The necessary change is “Update processor inventories and enforce return or verified destruction” with the verification “Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates”.

Question 154

A company changes data processor but does not reconcile retained copies. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Inspect only the new contract while the data-flow register still references the old vendor
  2. Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates
  3. Check that the new processor is live without reconciling copies left with the previous one
  4. Verify the previous vendor's portal account is disabled but not the destruction attestation

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An observation of “Inspect only the new contract while the data-flow register still references the old vendor” would not verify the relevant control. A change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates”.

C:

An observation of “Check that the new processor is live without reconciling copies left with the previous one” would not verify the relevant control. A change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates”.

D:

The acceptance test must demonstrate “Review processor attestations and data-flow register updates” because a change of custodian does not end owner responsibility. “Verify the previous vendor's portal account is disabled but not the destruction attestation” cannot establish that result.

Question 155

A storage backup remains after contractual retention limits expire. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Purge only the current database copy while expired backup sets remain available for restore
  2. Make backups permanently immutable without applying contractual expiry or legal-hold controls
  3. Design lifecycle controls that also dispose of expired backup versions where permitted
  4. Remove backup catalog labels but retain all expired sensitive snapshots on storage

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The proposal “Purge only the current database copy while expired backup sets remain available for restore” does not meet the relevant requirement because data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. The matching remediation is “Design lifecycle controls that also dispose of expired backup versions where permitted”.

B:

“Make backups permanently immutable without applying contractual expiry or legal-hold controls” is not the relevant mitigation. Data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. The scenario calls for “Design lifecycle controls that also dispose of expired backup versions where permitted”; the acceptance check is “Test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions”.

D:

“Remove backup catalog labels but retain all expired sensitive snapshots on storage” is not the relevant mitigation. Data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. The scenario calls for “Design lifecycle controls that also dispose of expired backup versions where permitted”; the acceptance check is “Test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions”.

Question 156

A storage backup remains after contractual retention limits expire. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Confirm backup encryption is enabled without checking approved expiry and hold exceptions
  2. Inspect a retention policy document without exercising its deletion against aged backup sets
  3. Review the primary database retention job while old backup versions remain untouched
  4. Test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. The proposed check, “Confirm backup encryption is enabled without checking approved expiry and hold exceptions”, misses the relevant outcome; “Test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

B:

“Inspect a retention policy document without exercising its deletion against aged backup sets” does not show the required outcome: test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions. That test matters because data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules.

C:

Data destruction applies to recovery copies subject to preservation rules. The proposed check, “Review the primary database retention job while old backup versions remain untouched”, misses the relevant outcome; “Test backup-set expiry with scoped legal-hold exceptions” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

Question 157

A machine-learning team collects sensitive training data without a disposal plan. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Document collection purpose, allowed model usage and final deletion triggers
  2. Define model deployment approvals but not the permitted use or deletion of source training records
  3. Keep training data indefinitely because model-development work might recur someday
  4. Mask training file names while continuing to retain all sensitive snapshots without lifecycle triggers

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls.

Incorrect Answers

B:

AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement. “Define model deployment approvals but not the permitted use or deletion of source training records” does not supply that control; “Document collection purpose, allowed model usage and final deletion triggers” addresses the identified gap, and “Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls” verifies the result.

C:

The security distinction is that AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement. “Keep training data indefinitely because model-development work might recur someday” addresses neither the required “Document collection purpose, allowed model usage and final deletion triggers” action nor its supporting evidence: “Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls”.

D:

AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement. “Mask training file names while continuing to retain all sensitive snapshots without lifecycle triggers” does not supply that control; “Document collection purpose, allowed model usage and final deletion triggers” addresses the identified gap, and “Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls” verifies the result.

Question 158

A machine-learning team collects sensitive training data without a disposal plan. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Verify a model meets accuracy goals without tracing retained sensitive training copies
  2. Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls
  3. Check storage encryption but not whether temporary training snapshots expire
  4. Review the initial project charter while derived datasets lack an owner and deletion trigger

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Verify a model meets accuracy goals without tracing retained sensitive training copies” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls”, reflecting the requirement that AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement.

C:

“Check storage encryption but not whether temporary training snapshots expire” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls”, reflecting the requirement that AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement.

D:

“Review the initial project charter while derived datasets lack an owner and deletion trigger” is insufficient to demonstrate that “Document collection purpose, allowed model usage and final deletion triggers” works. AI training data remains an asset through derivation and retirement. The decisive test is “Trace training snapshots and model-derived datasets to retention controls”.

Question 159

A legacy operating system has reached end of support but still processes payments. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Rely on a monthly antivirus scan as permanent compensation for missing vendor patches
  2. Treat normal uptime as proof that unsupported security components are acceptable indefinitely
  3. Record unsupported-platform risk and plan compensating controls plus replacement
  4. Continue using the unsupported payment OS without recording a risk or replacement timetable

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

End of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Rely on a monthly antivirus scan as permanent compensation for missing vendor patches” leaves the essential control missing: end of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. The direct corrective action is “Record unsupported-platform risk and plan compensating controls plus replacement”, validated by the acceptance check “Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones”.

B:

“Treat normal uptime as proof that unsupported security components are acceptable indefinitely” would not establish the protection described: end of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. The necessary change is “Record unsupported-platform risk and plan compensating controls plus replacement” with the verification “Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones”.

D:

“Continue using the unsupported payment OS without recording a risk or replacement timetable” would not establish the protection described: end of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. The necessary change is “Record unsupported-platform risk and plan compensating controls plus replacement” with the verification “Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones”.

Question 160

A legacy operating system has reached end of support but still processes payments. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Verify antivirus signatures update while vendor security fixes and retirement milestones remain missing
  2. Confirm that the legacy payment application still runs but not its support and exposure status
  3. Review a generic change ticket without an approved unsupported-platform treatment plan
  4. Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

End of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An observation of “Verify antivirus signatures update while vendor security fixes and retirement milestones remain missing” would not verify the relevant control. End of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones”.

B:

The acceptance test must demonstrate “Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones” because end of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. “Confirm that the legacy payment application still runs but not its support and exposure status” cannot establish that result.

C:

An observation of “Review a generic change ticket without an approved unsupported-platform treatment plan” would not verify the relevant control. End of vendor support changes risk even when a system still runs. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Check supplier support status and approved remediation milestones”.
