34 Your database team would like to use a service-oriented architecture (SOA). The CISO suggested you investigate the risk for adopting this type of architecture. What is the biggest security risk to adopting an SOA?SOA available only over the enterprise networkLack of understanding from stakeholders Risk of legacy networks and system vulnerabilitiesSource code
35 With traditional network architecture, one best practice is to limit network access points. This limitation allowed for a concentration of network security resources and a protected attack surface. With the introduction of 802.1x into enterprise network architecture, what was introduced into the network?Increased capability and increased risk and higher TCODecreased capability and increased risk and higher TCOIncreased capability and decreased risk and lower TCODecreased capability and decreased risk and lower TCO
36 Marketing asked for web-based meeting software with a third-party vendor. The software you reviewed requires user registration and installation, and the user has to share their desktop. To ensure that information is secure, which of the following controls is BEST?Disallow.
