182 What is a major security concern associated with IoT?Lack of encryptionUse of hard-coded passwordsLack of firmware supportAll of the above
183 Your company is recovering from a data breach. The breach was not deep but raised the security awareness profile of upper management.

185 Your penetration testers' report shows that they obtained the credentials of specific user accounts through social engineering and phishing campaigns. Once on the organization's network, the penetration testers used these credentials to bypass access controls and to gain access to remote systems. In one case, they were able to switch from a user-level account to an administrator-level account. What is this type of attack called?XSRFPassword mitigationToken theftPrivilege escalation
186 You have an application that performs authentication, which makes checking for session management, brute forcing, and password complexity appropriate. What else might you check for?SQLiRansomwarePrivilege escalationStatic analysis
187 As the senior security architect, you create a security policy and standards that instruct employees to use strong passwords. You find that employees are still using weak passwords. Revising the procedures for creating strong passwords, which of these are you least likely to require for employees?Change your password every 90 days.Use a combination of numbers, letters, uppercase and lowercase letters, and special characters.Use a minimum number of characters.Use a Merriam-Webster dictionary.
188 You just accepted a CISO position for a small customer service business, and your first priority is to increase security and accessibility for current software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications.

194 You need to find a web-based language that is used to exchange security information with single sign-on (SSO). Which of the following is the best language to use?SOAPKerberosSAML/ShibbolethAPI
195 Your IT manager wants to move from a centralized access control methodology to a decentralized access control methodology. You need a router that authenticates users from a locally stored database. This requires subjects to be added individually to the local database for access, which creates a security domain, or sphere of trust. What best describes this type of administration?Decentralized access control requires more administrative work.Decentralized access control creates a bottleneck.Decentralized access control requires a single authorization server.Decentralized access control stores all the users in the same administrative location using RADIUS.
196 The CISO is researching ways to reduce risk associated with the separation of duties. In the case where one person is not available, another needs to be able to perform all the duties of their co-workers. What should the CISO implement to reduce risk?Mandatory requirement of a shared account for administrative purposesAudit of all ongoing administration activitiesSeparation of duties to ensure no single administrator has accessRole-based security on the primary role and provisional access to the secondary role on a case-by-case basis
197 You implement mandatory access control for your secure data storage system. You change default passwords and enforce the use of strong passwords. What else should you do to make this storage system even more secure?Multifactor authenticationMultifactor authorizationIdentificationVerification

203 Your company currently uses Kerberos authentication protocols and tickets to prove identity. You are looking for another means of authentication because Kerberos has several potential vulnerabilities, the biggest being which of the following?Single point of failureDynamic passwordsLimited read/write cyclesConsensus
204 You need an authorization framework that gives a third-party application access to resources without providing the owners' credentials to the application. Which of these is your best option?MACEAPSAMLOAuth
