Certified Information Systems Security Professional CISSP Practice Test 27

Question 260

A tape vault is accessible to general staff who enter the main server room. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Confirm backup tapes are readable without reviewing who checked them out
  2. Check main server-room access badges while separate vault custody remains uncontrolled
  3. Count tapes in storage without reconciling removal against documented media authorization
  4. Inspect vault access logs against media checkout records

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Separate physical protection limits recovery-media compromise. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Inspect vault access logs against media checkout records.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Confirm backup tapes are readable without reviewing who checked them out” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Inspect vault access logs against media checkout records”, reflecting the requirement that separate physical protection limits recovery-media compromise.

B:

“Check main server-room access badges while separate vault custody remains uncontrolled” is insufficient to demonstrate that “Establish separate authorization and custody controls for backup media” works. Separate physical protection limits recovery-media compromise. The decisive test is “Inspect vault access logs against media checkout records”.

C:

“Count tapes in storage without reconciling removal against documented media authorization” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Inspect vault access logs against media checkout records”, reflecting the requirement that separate physical protection limits recovery-media compromise.

Question 261

A facility's roof penetrations permit water leakage above critical racks. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Install environmental detection and relocate or shield vulnerable equipment
  2. Leave vulnerable equipment under roof penetrations but add a general facilities status dashboard
  3. Replace network switches with redundant models while the same leak can affect both units
  4. Depend on server-room antivirus rather than addressing the physical water-leak exposure above racks

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators.

Incorrect Answers

B:

“Leave vulnerable equipment under roof penetrations but add a general facilities status dashboard” would not establish the protection described: physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. The necessary change is “Install environmental detection and relocate or shield vulnerable equipment” with the verification “Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators”.

C:

“Replace network switches with redundant models while the same leak can affect both units” leaves the essential control missing: physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. The direct corrective action is “Install environmental detection and relocate or shield vulnerable equipment”, validated by the acceptance check “Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators”.

D:

“Depend on server-room antivirus rather than addressing the physical water-leak exposure above racks” would not establish the protection described: physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. The necessary change is “Install environmental detection and relocate or shield vulnerable equipment” with the verification “Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators”.

Question 262

A facility's roof penetrations permit water leakage above critical racks. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Confirm temperature probes work while no sensor detects water reaching critical racks
  2. Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators
  3. Verify racks have valid network connections without triggering water-leak detection
  4. Inspect roof repair invoices without testing alarm delivery or residual equipment exposure

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An observation of “Confirm temperature probes work while no sensor detects water reaching critical racks” would not verify the relevant control. Physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators”.

C:

An observation of “Verify racks have valid network connections without triggering water-leak detection” would not verify the relevant control. Physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators”.

D:

The acceptance test must demonstrate “Test leak sensors and alarm routing to operators” because physical hazard controls mitigate failures unrelated to cyber intrusion. “Inspect roof repair invoices without testing alarm delivery or residual equipment exposure” cannot establish that result.

Question 263

Security operations cannot tell when a restricted-area door is propped open. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Disable propped-door alarms because normal deliveries frequently hold the restricted door open
  2. Rely on an access card log that records entries but not the time the door remains open
  3. Use monitored door contacts, alarms and response procedures
  4. Install a hallway camera without an actionable open-door threshold or response owner

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to trigger a held-open event and verify timely response.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The proposal “Disable propped-door alarms because normal deliveries frequently hold the restricted door open” does not meet the relevant requirement because access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. The matching remediation is “Use monitored door contacts, alarms and response procedures”.

B:

“Rely on an access card log that records entries but not the time the door remains open” is not the relevant mitigation. Access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. The scenario calls for “Use monitored door contacts, alarms and response procedures”; the acceptance check is “Trigger a held-open event and verify timely response”.

D:

“Install a hallway camera without an actionable open-door threshold or response owner” is not the relevant mitigation. Access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. The scenario calls for “Use monitored door contacts, alarms and response procedures”; the acceptance check is “Trigger a held-open event and verify timely response”.

Question 264

Security operations cannot tell when a restricted-area door is propped open. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Review ordinary door-entry events without testing held-open alerts and escalation timing
  2. Check camera coverage but not whether operators receive and act on a propped-door event
  3. Confirm authorized employees can badge through while the door is intentionally propped open
  4. Trigger a held-open event and verify timely response

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Trigger a held-open event and verify timely response.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. The proposed check, “Review ordinary door-entry events without testing held-open alerts and escalation timing”, misses the relevant outcome; “Trigger a held-open event and verify timely response” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

B:

“Check camera coverage but not whether operators receive and act on a propped-door event” does not show the required outcome: trigger a held-open event and verify timely response. That test matters because access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry.

C:

Access badges alone do not detect circumvention after entry. The proposed check, “Confirm authorized employees can badge through while the door is intentionally propped open”, misses the relevant outcome; “Trigger a held-open event and verify timely response” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

Question 265

A new application design is approved without documented security requirements. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Include threat and control requirements in the system lifecycle before architecture approval
  2. Ask the QA team to infer security needs from existing source code rather than documented business risk
  3. Approve application architecture first and write security requirements only after deployment
  4. Treat a completed feature list as sufficient authorization without threat analysis or control criteria

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Security should influence architecture before development commitment. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to trace accepted requirements to design and test cases.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Security should influence architecture before development commitment. “Ask the QA team to infer security needs from existing source code rather than documented business risk” does not supply that control; “Include threat and control requirements in the system lifecycle before architecture approval” addresses the identified gap, and “Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases” verifies the result.

C:

The security distinction is that security should influence architecture before development commitment. “Approve application architecture first and write security requirements only after deployment” addresses neither the required “Include threat and control requirements in the system lifecycle before architecture approval” action nor its supporting evidence: “Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases”.

D:

Security should influence architecture before development commitment. “Treat a completed feature list as sufficient authorization without threat analysis or control criteria” does not supply that control; “Include threat and control requirements in the system lifecycle before architecture approval” addresses the identified gap, and “Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases” verifies the result.

Question 266

A new application design is approved without documented security requirements. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Check that code builds successfully without tracing security requirements into design decisions
  2. Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases
  3. Verify project signoff dates but not that security acceptance criteria were reviewed before architecture approval
  4. Count test cases without proving they cover identified threats and required controls

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Security should influence architecture before development commitment. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Check that code builds successfully without tracing security requirements into design decisions” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases”, reflecting the requirement that security should influence architecture before development commitment.

C:

“Verify project signoff dates but not that security acceptance criteria were reviewed before architecture approval” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases”, reflecting the requirement that security should influence architecture before development commitment.

D:

“Count test cases without proving they cover identified threats and required controls” is insufficient to demonstrate that “Include threat and control requirements in the system lifecycle before architecture approval” works. Security should influence architecture before development commitment. The decisive test is “Trace accepted requirements to design and test cases”.

Question 267

An integration uses an undocumented service account between two systems. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Put the service password in a shared configuration file without a credential rotation or ownership process
  2. Encrypt the interface but grant the service identity full administrative permissions on both systems
  3. Complete interface trust analysis and controlled credential lifecycle
  4. Treat the undocumented inter-system account as trusted because both systems belong to the organization

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

System integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to test the interface under least-privilege service roles.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Put the service password in a shared configuration file without a credential rotation or ownership process” leaves the essential control missing: system integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. The direct corrective action is “Complete interface trust analysis and controlled credential lifecycle”, validated by the acceptance check “Test the interface under least-privilege service roles”.

B:

“Encrypt the interface but grant the service identity full administrative permissions on both systems” would not establish the protection described: system integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. The necessary change is “Complete interface trust analysis and controlled credential lifecycle” with the verification “Test the interface under least-privilege service roles”.

D:

“Treat the undocumented inter-system account as trusted because both systems belong to the organization” would not establish the protection described: system integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. The necessary change is “Complete interface trust analysis and controlled credential lifecycle” with the verification “Test the interface under least-privilege service roles”.

Question 268

An integration uses an undocumented service account between two systems. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Check that a token exists without probing denied actions under least-privilege service roles
  2. Confirm the integration successfully exchanges data without testing the account's forbidden privileges
  3. Review transport TLS settings while the service account's lifecycle and trust scope remain undefined
  4. Test the interface under least-privilege service roles

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

System integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Test the interface under least-privilege service roles.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An observation of “Check that a token exists without probing denied actions under least-privilege service roles” would not verify the relevant control. System integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Test the interface under least-privilege service roles”.

B:

The acceptance test must demonstrate “Test the interface under least-privilege service roles” because system integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. “Confirm the integration successfully exchanges data without testing the account's forbidden privileges” cannot establish that result.

C:

An observation of “Review transport TLS settings while the service account's lifecycle and trust scope remain undefined” would not verify the relevant control. System integration changes the attack surface and identity boundaries. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Test the interface under least-privilege service roles”.

Question 269

A release team treats a passing unit test as production security readiness. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Perform independent validation against security acceptance criteria and deployment controls
  2. Declare production security ready based on passing unit tests alone, without acceptance criteria
  3. Use developer self-attestation in place of independent validation of deployment controls
  4. Run a basic availability smoke test but omit security tests for restricted operations and release gates

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules.

Incorrect Answers

B:

“Declare production security ready based on passing unit tests alone, without acceptance criteria” is not the relevant mitigation. Verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. The scenario calls for “Perform independent validation against security acceptance criteria and deployment controls”; the acceptance check is “Compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules”.

C:

The proposal “Use developer self-attestation in place of independent validation of deployment controls” does not meet the relevant requirement because verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. The matching remediation is “Perform independent validation against security acceptance criteria and deployment controls”.

D:

“Run a basic availability smoke test but omit security tests for restricted operations and release gates” is not the relevant mitigation. Verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. The scenario calls for “Perform independent validation against security acceptance criteria and deployment controls”; the acceptance check is “Compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules”.

Question 270

A release team treats a passing unit test as production security readiness. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Inspect CI job status without checking preproduction security test evidence and approvals
  2. Compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules
  3. Verify the web page loads in production while unauthorized access and secret handling remain untested
  4. Confirm functional unit tests pass without comparing the deployed build with security acceptance rules

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. The proposed check, “Inspect CI job status without checking preproduction security test evidence and approvals”, misses the relevant outcome; “Compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

C:

Verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests. The proposed check, “Verify the web page loads in production while unauthorized access and secret handling remain untested”, misses the relevant outcome; “Compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

D:

“Confirm functional unit tests pass without comparing the deployed build with security acceptance rules” does not show the required outcome: compare preproduction evidence with documented acceptance rules. That test matters because verification and validation extend beyond developer-level tests.
