1. To which of the following layers of the Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) model would one map Ethernet?

Data Link Network Application Transport (X) 5. Which cybersecurity principle is most important when attempting to trace the source of malicious activity? Availability Integrity Nonrepudiation Confidentiality 6. Which of the following offers the strongest protection for wireless network traffic? Wireless Protected Access 2 (WPA2) Wireless Protected Access-Advanced Encryption Standard (WPA-AES) Wired Equivalent Protection 128-bit (WEP-128) Wireless Protected Access-Temporary Key Integrity Protocol (WPA-TKIP) 7. Outsourcing poses the greatest risk to an organization when it involves: Business support services Technology infrastructure Cybersecurity capabilities Core business functions 8. Risk assessments should be performed: At the start of a program On a regular basis When an asset changes When a vulnerability is discovered 9. Maintaining a high degree of confidence regarding the integrity of evidence requires a(n): Power of attorney Sworn statement Chain of custody Affidavit 10. A firewall that tracks open connection-oriented protocol sessions is said to be: State-sponsored Stateless Stateful Stated 11. During which phase of the system development lifecycle (SDLC) should security first be considered? Planning Analysis Design Implementation 12. A cybersecurity architecture designed around the concept of a perimeter is said to be: Data-centric User-centric Integrated System-centric 13. A passive network hub operates at which layer of the OSI model? Data Link Physical Network Transport 14. Updates in cloud-computing environments can be rolled out quickly because the environment is: Homogeneous Distributed Diversified Secure 15. During which phase of the six-phase incident response model is the root cause determined? Recovery Identification Containment Eradication 16. The attack mechanism directed against a system is commonly called a(n): Exploit Vulnerability Payload Attack Vector 17. Where should an organization's network terminate virtual private network (VPN) tunnels? At an interior router, to reduce network traffic congestion At a dedicated "honey pot" system in the demilitarized zone (DMZ) At the destination system, to prevent loss of confidentiality At the perimeter, to allow for effective internal monitoring 18. In practical applications: Symmetric key encryption is used to securely distribute asymmetric keys Asymmetric key encryption is used to securely obtain symmetric keys Symmetric key encryption is used only for short messages, such as digital signatures Asymmetric key encryption is used in cases where speed is important 19. Which two factors are used to calculate the likelihood of an event? Threat and vulnerability Vulnerability and asset value Asset count and asset value Threat and asset count 20. What is one advantage of a firewall implemented in software over a firewall appliance? Performance Power consumption Flexibility Resiliency 21. A business continuity plan (BCP) is not complete unless it includes: Dedicated resources Detailed procedures Network diagrams Critical processes 22. Under the US-CERT model for incident categorization, a CAT-3 incident refers to which of the following? Improper usage Investigation Denial of service (DoS) Malicious code 23. An interoperability error is what type of vulnerability? Technical Process Emergent Organizational 24. Securing Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems can be challenging because they: Operate in specialized environments and often have non-standard design elements Are subject to specialized requirements established for national security systems Support critical infrastructure processes for which any risk of compromise is unacceptable Cannot be replaced due to aging infrastructure and the complexity of included components 25. Virtual systems should be managed using a dedicated virtual local area network (VLAN) because: Network topologies do not always property identify the locations of virtual servers VLAN encryption provides a double layer of protection for virtual system data Insecure protocols could result in a compromise of privileged user credentials Segregation of management traffic and use traffic dramatically improves performance

2. Which of the following interpret requirements and apply them to specific situations?
