Which of the following access control models introduces user security clearance and data classification?

  1. Role-based access control
  2. Discretionary access control
  3. Non-discretionary access control
  4. Mandatory access control

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The mandatory access control model is based on a security label system. Users are given a security clearance and data is classified. The classification is stored in the security labels of the resources. Classification labels specify the level of trust a user must have to access a certain file.

Password management falls into which control category?

  1. Compensating
  2. Detective
  3. Preventive
  4. Technical

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Password management is an example of preventive control. Proper passwords prevent unauthorized users from accessing a system.
There are literally hundreds of different access approaches, control methods, and technologies, both in the physical world and in the virtual electronic world. Each method addresses a different type of access control or a specific access need.
For example, access control solutions may incorporate identification and authentication mechanisms, filters, rules, rights, logging and monitoring, policy, and a plethora of other controls. However, despite the diversity of access control methods, all access control systems can be categorized into seven primary categories.
The seven main categories of access control are:
1. Directive: Controls designed to specify acceptable rules of behavior within an organization
2. Deterrent: Controls designed to discourage people from violating security directives
3. Preventive: Controls implemented to prevent a security incident or information breach
4. Compensating: Controls implemented to substitute for the loss of primary controls and mitigate risk down to an acceptable level
5. Detective: Controls designed to signal a warning when a security control has been breached
6. Corrective: Controls implemented to remedy circumstance, mitigate damage, or restore controls
7. Recovery: Controls implemented to restore conditions to normal after a security incident

Which of the following access control models requires security clearance for subjects?

  1. Identity-based access control
  2. Role-based access control
  3. Discretionary access control
  4. Mandatory access control

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

With mandatory access control (MAC), the authorization of a subject's access to an object is dependant upon labels, which indicate the subject's clearance. Identity-based access control is a type of discretionary access control. A role-based access control is a type of non- discretionary access control.

Which of the following access control models requires defining classification for objects?

  1. Role-based access control
  2. Discretionary access control
  3. Identity-based access control
  4. Mandatory access control

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

With mandatory access control (MAC), the authorization of a subject's access to an object is dependant upon labels, which indicate the subject's clearance, and classification of objects.
The Following answers were incorrect:
Identity-based Access Control is a type of Discretionary Access Control (DAC), they are synonymous.
Role Based Access Control (RBAC) and Rule Based Access Control (RuBAC or RBAC) are types of Non Discretionary Access Control (NDAC).
Tip:
When you have two answers that are synonymous they are not the right choice for sure.
There is only one access control model that makes use of Label, Clearances, and Categories, it is Mandatory Access Control, none of the other one makes use of those items.

To everyone interested in this exam. I can tell you that questions are 90% accurate. Good enough to pass the exam with a good mark. But you need to study all these questions as you get randomized questions from this question bank. I pass my exam and that is what I could share as part of my study experience. Good luck to you all.

Hello @Theguy, I actually used the full version of this exam (they provide the full version in PDF and it comes with an interactive test engine software which is actually pretty good). I managed to study for a month and then booked my exam. I managed to pass my exam. Make sure to practice withe test engine they provide and make sure you get more than 90% passing mark with their test engine. After that you will be ready to book your exam. Best of luck with you studies.
