The CISSP certification exam is considered one of the most challenging exams in the field of information security. CISSP exam consists of 250 multiple-choice questions that must be completed within six hours. The questions are designed to test an individual's knowledge in various areas of information security, including security concepts, access control, cryptography, and network security.
How to earn MCISSP credential?
The candidate must earn 40 continuing education units (CEUs) for the MCISSP credential. The CEUs may be earned through participation in the ISSA-certified training course, obtaining CEUs from any other Information Systems Security Association (ISSA) member, obtaining certification credits for passing the exam, or through participating in many other online sites.
The Master level provides a well-rounded view of the entire field of information security and prepares professionals to step into security executive positions as well as pursuing the CISSP (ISC)2. The candidate must have either a minimum of five years professional experience in two or more areas of information security; or one year of experience in two or more areas of information security and a four-year college degree. As the MCISSP has broadened its reach, it can now be achieved by those who hold this credential and no prior professional-level certifications.
Three new specialties were added to give depth to students' profession knowledge, which was not previously seen with the MCSE speciality.
How to earn PCSA credentials?
The candidate must earn 50 continuing education units (CEUs) for the PCSA credential. The CEUs may be earned through participation in the ISSA - ISC2 Security Forum of Interest Community of Interest (COI), attendance at an Information Systems Security Association (ISSA) certified training course, obtaining CEUs from any other Information Systems Security Association or Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA) member, obtaining certification credits for passing the exam, or through participating in many other online sites.

NEW QUESTION # 453
Which of the following access control techniques best gives the security officers the ability to specify and enforce enterprise-specific security policies in a way that maps naturally to an organization's structure?
- A. Non-mandatory access control
- B. Discretionary access control
- C. Access control lists
- D. Role-based access control
Answer: D
Explanation:
Role-based access control (RBAC) gives the security officers the ability to specify and enforce enterprise-specific security policies in a way that maps naturally to an organization's structure. Each user is assigned one or more roles, and each role is assigned one or more privileges that are given to users in that role. An access control list
(ACL) is a table that tells a system which access rights each user has to a particular system object. With discretionary access control, administration is decentralized and owners of resources control other users' access. Non-mandatory access control is not a defined access control technique.

NEW QUESTION # 455
What action should be taken by a business line that is unwilling to accept the residual risk in a system after implementing compensating controls?
- A. Find another business line willing to accept the residual risk.
- B. Purchase insurance to cover the residual risk.
- C. Notify the audit committee of the situation.
- D. Implement operational safeguards.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Residual risk is the risk that remains after implementing controls to mitigate the original risk. If a business line is unwilling to accept the residual risk in a system, one possible action is to purchase insurance to cover the potential losses or damages that may result from the residual risk. This is a form of risk transfer, which is one of the four risk management strategies, along with risk avoidance, risk mitigation, and risk acceptance.
Notifying the audit committee, implementing operational safeguards, and finding another business line are not valid actions to deal with residual risk . References: [CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, Eighth Edition, Chapter
1, page 32]; [CISSP CBK, Fifth Edition, Chapter 2, page 151].

NEW QUESTION # 460
Most computer attacks result in violation of which of the following security properties?
- A. Integrity and control
- B. All of the choices.
- C. Availability
- D. Confidentiality
Answer: B
Explanation:
Most computer attacks only corrupt a system's security in very specific ways. For example, certain attacks may enable a hacker to read specific files but don't allow alteration of any system components. Another attack may allow a hacker to shut down certain system components but doesn't allow access to any files. Despite the varied capabilities of computer attacks, they usually result in violation of only four different security properties: availability, confidentiality, integrity, and control.

- C. It exposes the system to data locking.
- D. It increases processing overhead.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
'Content-dependent' access control is a form of access control required by many applications. It is defined as access control where the decision to allow access to an object depends upon the value of attributes of the user and target objects themselves. One drawback with Content-dependent access control is that extra processing is required.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Content-dependent protection does not require an additional password entry.
C: Content-dependent protection does not lock data.
D: Content-dependent protection does not limit any address space.

Answer: C
Explanation:
The following answers are incorrect:
A bridge simply connects multiple networks, a router examines each packet to determine which network to forward it to. Is incorrect because both forward packets this is not distinctive enough.
"Bridge" and "router" are synonyms for equipment used to join two networks. Is incorrect because the two are unique and operate at different layers of the OSI model.
The bridge is a specific type of router used to connect a LAN to the global Internet. Is incorrect because a bridge does not connect a LAN to the global internet, but connects networks together creating a LAN.

NEW QUESTION # 469
The equation Z = f [wn in ], where Z is the output, wn are weighting
functions, and in is a set of inputs describes:
- A. A knowledge acquisition system
- B. A knowledge-based system
- C. An artificial neural network (ANN)
- D. An expert system
Answer: C
Explanation:
The equation defines a single layer ANN as shown in Figure.
Each input, in, is multiplied by a weight, wn , and these products are fed into a summation transfer function, , that generates an output,
Z. Most neural networks have multiple layers of summation and weighting functions, whose interconnections can also be changed. There are a number of different learning paradigms for neural networks, including reinforcement learning and back propagation. In reinforcement learning a training set of inputs is provided to the ANN along with a measure of how close the network is coming to a solution. Then, the weights and connections are readjusted. In back propagation, information is fed back inside the neural network from the output and is used by the ANN to make weight and connection adjustments. *Answers An expert system and A knowledge-based system are distracters that describe systems that use knowledge-based rules of experts to solve problems using an inferencing mechanism. *A knowledge acquisition system refers to the means of identifying and acquiring the knowledge to be entered into the knowledge base of an expert system.

What is the MOST effective way to determine a mission critical asset in an organization?
- A. business process analysis
- B. Business risk analysis
- C. Vulnerability analysis
- D. Threat analysis
Answer: A
Explanation:
Business process analysis is the most effective way to determine a mission critical asset in an organization.
Business process analysis is a method of identifying, documenting, and optimizing the core business processes that deliver value to the customers and stakeholders. By analyzing the business processes, an organization can identify the assets that are essential for the successful operation and continuity of the business, such as data, systems, personnel, facilities, and suppliers. These assets are then classified as mission critical and prioritized for protection and recovery.
