  3. Eavesdropping
  4. Logon abuse

In regards to information classification what is the main responsibility of information (data) owner?

  1. determining the data sensitivity or classification level
  2. running regular data backups
  3. audit the data users
  4. periodically check the validity and accuracy of the data

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Making the determination to decide what level of classification the information requires is the main responsibility of the data owner.
The data owner within classification is a person from Management who has been entrusted with a data set that belong to the company. It could be for example the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) who has been entrusted with all financial date or it could be the Human Resource Director who has been entrusted with all Human Resource data. The information owner will decide what classification will be applied to the data based on Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability, Criticality, and Sensitivity of the data.
The Custodian is the technical person who will implement the proper classification on objects in accordance with the Data Owner. The custodian DOES NOT decide what classification to apply, it is the Data Owner who will dictate to the Custodian what is the classification to apply.
NOTE:
The term Data Owner is also used within Discretionary Access Control (DAC). Within DAC it means the person who has created an object. For example, if I create a file on my system then I am the owner of the file and I can decide who else could get access to the file. It is left to my discretion. Within DAC access is granted based solely on the Identity of the subject, this is why sometimes DAC is referred to as Identity Based Access Control.
The other choices were not the best answer
Running regular backups is the responsibility of custodian.
Audit the data users is the responsibility of the auditors Periodically check the validity and accuracy of the data is not one of the data owner responsibility

Which of the following is not a two-factor authentication mechanism?

  1. Something you have and something you know.
  2. Something you do and a password.
  3. A smartcard and something you are.
  4. Something you know and a password.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Something you know and a password fits within only one of the three ways authentication could be done. A password is an example of something you know, thereby something you know and a password does not constitute a two-factor authentication as both are in the same category of factors.
A two-factor (strong) authentication relies on two different kinds of authentication factors out of a list of three possible choice:
something you know (e.g. a PIN or password),
something you have (e.g. a smart card, token, magnetic card), something you are is mostly Biometrics (e.g. a fingerprint) or something you do (e.g. signature dynamics).
TIP FROM CLEMENT:
On the real exam you can expect to see synonyms and sometimes sub-categories under the main categories. People are familiar with Pin, Passphrase, Password as subset of Something you know.
However, when people see choices such as Something you do or Something you are they immediately get confused and they do not think of them as subset of Biometrics where you have Biometric implementation based on behavior and physilogical attributes. So something you do falls under the Something you are category as a subset.
Something your do would be signing your name or typing text on your keyboard for example.
Strong authentication is simply when you make use of two factors that are within two different categories.

Which of the following access control models introduces user security clearance and data classification?

  1. Role-based access control
  2. Discretionary access control
  3. Non-discretionary access control
  4. Mandatory access control

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The mandatory access control model is based on a security label system. Users are given a security clearance and data is classified. The classification is stored in the security labels of the resources. Classification labels specify the level of trust a user must have to access a certain file.

Password management falls into which control category?

  1. Compensating
  2. Detective
  3. Preventive
  4. Technical

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Password management is an example of preventive control. Proper passwords prevent unauthorized users from accessing a system.
There are literally hundreds of different access approaches, control methods, and technologies, both in the physical world and in the virtual electronic world. Each method addresses a different type of access control or a specific access need.
For example, access control solutions may incorporate identification and authentication mechanisms, filters, rules, rights, logging and monitoring, policy, and a plethora of other controls. However, despite the diversity of access control methods, all access control systems can be categorized into seven primary categories.
The seven main categories of access control are:
1. Directive: Controls designed to specify acceptable rules of behavior within an organization
2. Deterrent: Controls designed to discourage people from violating security directives
3. Preventive: Controls implemented to prevent a security incident or information breach
4. Compensating: Controls implemented to substitute for the loss of primary controls and mitigate risk down to an acceptable level
5. Detective: Controls designed to signal a warning when a security control has been breached
6. Corrective: Controls implemented to remedy circumstance, mitigate damage, or restore controls
7. Recovery: Controls implemented to restore conditions to normal after a security incident

question 8 - can cloudtrail be used for storing jobs? based on aws - aws cloudtrail is used for governance, compliance and investigating api usage across all of our aws accounts. every action that is taken by a user or script is an api call so this is logged to [aws] cloudtrail. something seems incorrect here.
