Certified Information Systems Security Professional CISSP Practice Test 58

Question 570

An intrusion alert is credible but responders immediately rebuild systems. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Eradicate all suspicious files without confirming incident scope or preserving key forensic indicators
  2. Triage, contain and preserve needed evidence before eradication and recovery
  3. Restore the server from backup while attackers retain access to adjacent systems and accounts
  4. Rebuild the suspected compromised host immediately and discard volatile evidence before triage

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Eradicate all suspicious files without confirming incident scope or preserving key forensic indicators” would not establish the protection described: premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. The necessary change is “Triage, contain and preserve needed evidence before eradication and recovery” with the verification “Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps”.

C:

“Restore the server from backup while attackers retain access to adjacent systems and accounts” would not establish the protection described: premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. The necessary change is “Triage, contain and preserve needed evidence before eradication and recovery” with the verification “Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps”.

D:

“Rebuild the suspected compromised host immediately and discard volatile evidence before triage” leaves the essential control missing: premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. The direct corrective action is “Triage, contain and preserve needed evidence before eradication and recovery”, validated by the acceptance check “Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps”.

Question 571

An intrusion alert is credible but responders immediately rebuild systems. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Verify a backup restoration succeeded while root cause and active persistence remain unassessed
  2. Confirm the host is back online without reviewing containment and evidence collection milestones
  3. Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps
  4. Check the incident ticket closed but not whether responders preserved forensic artifacts

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The acceptance test must demonstrate “Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps” because premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. “Verify a backup restoration succeeded while root cause and active persistence remain unassessed” cannot establish that result.

B:

An observation of “Confirm the host is back online without reviewing containment and evidence collection milestones” would not verify the relevant control. Premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps”.

D:

An observation of “Check the incident ticket closed but not whether responders preserved forensic artifacts” would not verify the relevant control. Premature rebuilding can destroy investigation evidence. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Review incident timeline for containment and evidence steps”.

Question 572

Ransomware response excludes customer communications and executive reporting. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Confine ransomware response decisions to the infrastructure team and omit customer disclosure planning
  2. Wait until complete recovery before notifying legal and executive incident stakeholders
  3. Treat external communications as a marketing issue unrelated to security incident management
  4. Run the incident plan with legal, communications and leadership roles

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Incident management includes governance and communications. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Confine ransomware response decisions to the infrastructure team and omit customer disclosure planning” is not the relevant mitigation. Incident management includes governance and communications. The scenario calls for “Run the incident plan with legal, communications and leadership roles”; the acceptance check is “Inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise”.

B:

The proposal “Wait until complete recovery before notifying legal and executive incident stakeholders” does not meet the relevant requirement because incident management includes governance and communications. The matching remediation is “Run the incident plan with legal, communications and leadership roles”.

C:

“Treat external communications as a marketing issue unrelated to security incident management” is not the relevant mitigation. Incident management includes governance and communications. The scenario calls for “Run the incident plan with legal, communications and leadership roles”; the acceptance check is “Inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise”.

Question 573

Ransomware response excludes customer communications and executive reporting. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise
  2. Review only SOC analyst notes while leadership reporting and customer impacts remain undocumented
  3. Check that the technical playbook ran but not that stakeholders met reporting deadlines
  4. Confirm infected machines were isolated without evaluating legal and communication decisions

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Incident management includes governance and communications. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Incident management includes governance and communications. The proposed check, “Review only SOC analyst notes while leadership reporting and customer impacts remain undocumented”, misses the relevant outcome; “Inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

C:

“Check that the technical playbook ran but not that stakeholders met reporting deadlines” does not show the required outcome: inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise. That test matters because incident management includes governance and communications.

D:

Incident management includes governance and communications. The proposed check, “Confirm infected machines were isolated without evaluating legal and communication decisions”, misses the relevant outcome; “Inspect report cadence and stakeholder decisions during exercise” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

Question 574

A repeat incident occurs because the response ends when servers return. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Focus solely on closing the latest ticket even when the same compromise path repeats
  2. Conduct lessons-learned analysis and track preventive corrective actions
  3. Declare the incident resolved once production servers restart and skip root-cause follow-up
  4. Record lessons learned verbally without owners or preventive deadlines

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Recovery is not the end of incident learning. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Recovery is not the end of incident learning. “Focus solely on closing the latest ticket even when the same compromise path repeats” does not supply that control; “Conduct lessons-learned analysis and track preventive corrective actions” addresses the identified gap, and “Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines” verifies the result.

C:

Recovery is not the end of incident learning. “Declare the incident resolved once production servers restart and skip root-cause follow-up” does not supply that control; “Conduct lessons-learned analysis and track preventive corrective actions” addresses the identified gap, and “Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines” verifies the result.

D:

The security distinction is that recovery is not the end of incident learning. “Record lessons learned verbally without owners or preventive deadlines” addresses neither the required “Conduct lessons-learned analysis and track preventive corrective actions” action nor its supporting evidence: “Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines”.

Question 575

A repeat incident occurs because the response ends when servers return. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Confirm systems are functioning but do not examine corrective actions from the prior event
  2. Check the postmortem was held without tracking whether agreed fixes are completed
  3. Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines
  4. Review incident counts while repeated attack paths remain assigned to nobody

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Recovery is not the end of incident learning. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Confirm systems are functioning but do not examine corrective actions from the prior event” is insufficient to demonstrate that “Conduct lessons-learned analysis and track preventive corrective actions” works. Recovery is not the end of incident learning. The decisive test is “Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines”.

B:

“Check the postmortem was held without tracking whether agreed fixes are completed” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines”, reflecting the requirement that recovery is not the end of incident learning.

D:

“Review incident counts while repeated attack paths remain assigned to nobody” evaluates something other than the specified fix. The meaningful evidence is “Verify repeat failure modes have accountable owners and deadlines”, reflecting the requirement that recovery is not the end of incident learning.

Question 576

A web application faces credential stuffing and automated abusive requests. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Apply only a simple IP blocklist while distributed credential stuffing evades rate policy
  2. Require longer passwords without login abuse controls or bot mitigation
  3. Increase web-server capacity but allow unlimited credential attempts from automated clients
  4. Deploy layered rate controls and appropriate web application defenses

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Apply only a simple IP blocklist while distributed credential stuffing evades rate policy” would not establish the protection described: WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. The necessary change is “Deploy layered rate controls and appropriate web application defenses” with the verification “Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional”.

B:

“Require longer passwords without login abuse controls or bot mitigation” leaves the essential control missing: WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. The direct corrective action is “Deploy layered rate controls and appropriate web application defenses”, validated by the acceptance check “Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional”.

C:

“Increase web-server capacity but allow unlimited credential attempts from automated clients” would not establish the protection described: WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. The necessary change is “Deploy layered rate controls and appropriate web application defenses” with the verification “Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional”.

Question 577

A web application faces credential stuffing and automated abusive requests. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional
  2. Verify suspicious clients are logged while they can still send unlimited authentication requests
  3. Confirm legitimate users can sign in but never simulate automated credential attempts
  4. Check WAF signature counts without observing credential-stuffing rate enforcement

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional.

Incorrect Answers

B:

An observation of “Verify suspicious clients are logged while they can still send unlimited authentication requests” would not verify the relevant control. WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional”.

C:

The acceptance test must demonstrate “Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional” because WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. “Confirm legitimate users can sign in but never simulate automated credential attempts” cannot establish that result.

D:

An observation of “Check WAF signature counts without observing credential-stuffing rate enforcement” would not verify the relevant control. WAF controls address application request behavior beyond network ports. The necessary acceptance evidence is “Simulate abusive traffic and verify legitimate use remains functional”.

Question 578

A malware detonation workflow runs suspicious files on ordinary employee endpoints. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Detonate suspicious files on a normal analyst desktop joined to the production network
  2. Use isolated sandbox execution with controlled observation
  3. Use a virtual machine with unrestricted shared folders and privileged production credentials for malware tests
  4. Depend on endpoint antivirus alerts while executing unknown code outside an isolated environment

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to check detonation cannot reach protected production assets.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Detonate suspicious files on a normal analyst desktop joined to the production network” is not the relevant mitigation. Malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. The scenario calls for “Use isolated sandbox execution with controlled observation”; the acceptance check is “Check detonation cannot reach protected production assets”.

C:

“Use a virtual machine with unrestricted shared folders and privileged production credentials for malware tests” is not the relevant mitigation. Malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. The scenario calls for “Use isolated sandbox execution with controlled observation”; the acceptance check is “Check detonation cannot reach protected production assets”.

D:

The proposal “Depend on endpoint antivirus alerts while executing unknown code outside an isolated environment” does not meet the relevant requirement because malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. The matching remediation is “Use isolated sandbox execution with controlled observation”.

Question 579

A malware detonation workflow runs suspicious files on ordinary employee endpoints. After implementing a remedy, which acceptance-test evidence MOST directly demonstrates that the specific issue has been addressed?

  1. Inspect malware analysis output while the test system can reach production secrets
  2. Verify a VM exists but not that suspicious code is isolated from protected systems
  3. Check detonation cannot reach protected production assets
  4. Confirm the sample executed successfully without testing sandbox escape or egress restrictions

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. The result of the remedy is checked directly: Check detonation cannot reach protected production assets.

Incorrect Answers

A:

“Inspect malware analysis output while the test system can reach production secrets” does not show the required outcome: check detonation cannot reach protected production assets. That test matters because malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated.

B:

Malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. The proposed check, “Verify a VM exists but not that suspicious code is isolated from protected systems”, misses the relevant outcome; “Check detonation cannot reach protected production assets” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

D:

Malware analysis must contain the hazard being investigated. The proposed check, “Confirm the sample executed successfully without testing sandbox escape or egress restrictions”, misses the relevant outcome; “Check detonation cannot reach protected production assets” tests whether the intended remedy worked.

Question 580

An intrusion detection rule generates alerts but no blocking action is required. Which security recommendation MOST directly addresses the described risk or requirement?

  1. Block all detected anomalies even when the documented requirement calls only for observation and alerting
  2. Place an IDS sensor inline and assume it will automatically block traffic like an IPS
  3. Deploy an IPS in monitor-only mode but claim malicious packets are actively denied
  4. Use the correct IDS versus IPS placement and response policy

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Detection and prevention are distinct security functions. A direct way to confirm the outcome is to test whether detection and inline prevention match design expectations.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Detection and prevention are distinct security functions. “Block all detected anomalies even when the documented requirement calls only for observation and alerting” does not supply that control; “Use the correct IDS versus IPS placement and response policy” addresses the identified gap, and “Test whether detection and inline prevention match design expectations” verifies the result.

B:

The security distinction is that detection and prevention are distinct security functions. “Place an IDS sensor inline and assume it will automatically block traffic like an IPS” addresses neither the required “Use the correct IDS versus IPS placement and response policy” action nor its supporting evidence: “Test whether detection and inline prevention match design expectations”.

C:

Detection and prevention are distinct security functions. “Deploy an IPS in monitor-only mode but claim malicious packets are actively denied” does not supply that control; “Use the correct IDS versus IPS placement and response policy” addresses the identified gap, and “Test whether detection and inline prevention match design expectations” verifies the result.
