Instructions:
  • Answer 45 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.
1. A small room with two authentication doors - after gaining access to the 1st door the subject is locked in until access to granted to the 2nd door






2. A password attack that tries all possible combinations until the correct password is identified






3. Security controls that spot and capture details about a security breach - i.e. a log file






4. Access control model that does not allow data to be accessed directly - concerned with separation of duty or function






5. Procedures -processes - controls that determine access are access control ________






6. Error caused by biometrics where the system accepts impostors - also know as false acceptance rate (FAR)






7. Preset (key in knob) - deadbolt - combination padlock - cipher






8. Data - hardware - networks - facility are access control ________






9. Builds on the dictionary attack by adding numbers and special characters and does some common substitution






10. Set of rules enforced by an OS to enhance security by forcing users to employ strong passwords






11. Security controls that thwart a security breach - i.e. require user ID and password






12. Cognitive - dynamic - one-time - passphrase






13. A password attack that encrypts all the words in the dictionary and compares the resulting hash values with those of the password






14. Something you know - have - are or location






15. User - programs - processes - requesting permissions are access control ________






16. Authentication method that include pin - password - code words - personal information






17. Security controls that fix a problem or prevent further damage






18. Identification - authentication - authorization - accountability






19. Information classification is no read up - no write down






20. Password type that best defends against password attacks - i.e. tokens






21. Password type based on fact or opinion based information - best for authentication that users do not use often - easy to remember






22. The most popular form of authentication






23. Using any two authentication methods






24. Form of authentication that relies on human characteristic - fingerprint - hand geometry - facial recognition - eye scan - voice print - DNA - something you _________






25. Form of physical authentication - id/smart card - atm card - token - key - passport - something you __________






26. The point at which the false rejection rate equals the false acceptance rate - used to determine the accuracy of biometric systems - low value = high accuracy






27. Data can only be accessed through applications - designed to prevent unauthorized modification - errors and fraud






28. The process of recovering passwords from stored/transmitted data






29. Lists of permission associated with objects - used in the DAC model - typically include a implicit deny rule






30. Token that generates a password based on time or event






31. Password length/complexity help defend against this attack






32. Information classification is no write up - no read down






33. Feature of an OS that allows for logical access control by grouping subjects with common characteristics






34. MAC - DAC - and RBAC






35. Token that generates a password based on challenge/response






36. Access control model designed to prevent authorized access to classified information - concerned with information confidentiality






37. ACL stands for...






38. A password attack that uses a look up table containing pre-computed hashes






39. Used by most ACLs - also known as deny by default






40. Dictionary - hybrid - brute force - rainbow table






41. Using three or more authentication methods






42. Tailgating - piggybacking - social engineering






43. Error caused by biometrics where the system rejects authorized individuals - also know as false rejection rate (FRR)






44. Access control model concerned with information integrity






45. CER stands for...
