Answers

and data exfiltration?




A) User authentication in all applications.




B) Use very strong encryption.




C) Use very strong key storage.




D) Use very complex firewall rules.

✓ :~~ C) Use very strong key storage.




Explanation

We would want a very strong key storage, if the attackers can get to our

encryption keys, most of the other security measures are irrelevant. Most

encryption today is strong enough to not be breakable with current technologies,

making it stronger does often not make it significantly more secure. Complex

firewall rules do not mean more secure, and in this example is a distractor. We

At which phase of our systems or software development lifecycle should risk

assessments be built in to ensure risks are addressed in the project development?




A) The specifications phase.




B) The programming phase.




C) The user testing phase.




D) The feasibility phase.


✓ :~~ D) The feasibility phase.




Explanation

We should address risk as early on in the project as possible, of the phases listed

here that would be feasibility. In the programming or the user testing phase is way

too late, if the feasibility phase was not an option, then we would do it in

specifications, but feasibility is much better.
