ITPEC IP April 2018 Question 44
ITPEC IP April 2018 — Question 44 of 100
Measures A, B, and D improve file-server security. Strong passwords resist guessing, permitted-IP restrictions reduce the sources allowed to connect, and regular log review helps detect misuse and investigate suspicious activity.
Answer (a)
Why not others:
- granting access to a guest account expands unauthorized or weakly attributable access and violates least privilege
- A, B, and D provide complementary authentication, network restriction, and monitoring controls
- the other options omit an effective measure or include unsafe C
Key rule: Protect servers with strong authentication, least-privilege access restrictions, and monitored audit logs; disable unnecessary guest access.
