CISSP Security Architecture And Design

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

15. According to the Orange Book - trusted facility management is not required for which security levels?






16. A domain of trust that shares a single security policy and single management






17. Which TCSEC level first addresses object reuse?






18. Requires more stringent authentication mechanisms and well-defined interfaces among layers.






19. In the Bell-LaPadula Model the Object's Label contains ___________________.






20. A system uses the Reference Monitor to ___________________ of a subject and an object?






21. Based on a known address with an offset value applied.






22. Accreditation is the authorization by management to _____________________. This authorization may be either provisional or full.






23. In both the Bell-LaPadula and Biba Models if the word "Simple is used ______________.






24. If a system initializes in a secure state and all allowed state transitions are secure - the every subsequent state will be secure no matter what inputs occur.






25. What prevents a process from accessing another process' data?






26. A is a form of EPROM - but its data storage can be erased and modified electrically by onboard programming circuitry and signals.






27. Mandatory Protection






28. Has two individual assurace ratings. C1 and C2. The Higher the number of assurance rating the greater the protection






29. The first mathematical model of a multi-level security policy used to define the concept of a secure state - the modes of access - and rules for granting access?






30. Reference Monitor is responsible for ______________ it compares the security labels of a subject and an object






31. The assignment of a specific individual to administer the security-related functions of a system.

35. The group that oversees the processes of evaluation within TCSEC is?






36. Execute one instruction at a time.






37. The process of Evaluating the security stance of the software or system against a selected set of standards or policies. This may precede accreditation but is not a required precursor.
