Which of the following models uses a directed graph to specify the rights that a subject
can transfer to an object or that a subject can take from another subject?
Take-Grant Protection Model
Bell-LaPadula Model
Biba Integrity Model
Access Matrix
The take-grant protection model is a formal model used in the field of computer security to
establish or disprove the safety of a given computer system that follows specific rules. It shows that for specific systems the question of safety is decidable in linear time, which is in general undecidable. The model represents a system as directed graph, where vertices are either subjects or objects. The edges between them are labeled and the label indicates the rights that the source of the edge has over the destination. Two rights occur in every instance of the model. take and grant. They play a special role in the graph rewriting rules describing admissible changes of the graph.
Answer option D is incorrect. The access matrix is a straightforward approach that
provides access rights to subjects for objects.
Answer option B is incorrect. The Bell-LaPadula model deals only with the confidentiality
of classified material. It does not address integrity or availability.
Which of the following plans is designed to protect critical business processes from natural or man- made failures or disasters and the resultant loss of capital due to the unavailability of normal business processes?
Business continuity plan
Crisis communication plan
Contingency plan
Disaster recovery plan
The business continuity plan is designed to protect critical business processes from natural
or man- made failures or disasters and the resultant loss of capital due to the unavailability of normal business processes.Business Continuity Planning (BCP) is the creation and validation of a practiced logistical plan for how an organization will recover and restore partially or completely interrupted critical (urgent) functions within a predetermined time after a disaster or extended disruption. The logistical plan is called a business continuity plan.
Answer option B is incorrect. The crisis communication plan can be broadly defined as the plan for the exchange of information before, during, or after a crisis event. It is considered as a sub-specialty of the public relations profession that is designed to protect and defend an individual, company, or organization facing a public challenge to its reputation.
The aim of crisis communication plan is to assist organizations to achieve continuity of critical business processes and information flows under crisis, disaster or event driven circumstances.
Answer option C is incorrect. A contingency plan is a plan devised for a specific situation
when things could go wrong. Contingency plans are often devised by governments or businesses who want to be prepared for anything that could happen. Contingency plans include specific strategies and actions to deal with specific variances to assumptions resulting in a particular problem, emergency, or state of affairs. They also include a monitoring process and "triggers" for initiating planned actions. They are required to help governments, businesses, or individuals to recover from serious incidents in the minimum time with minimum cost and disruption.
Answer option D is incorrect. A disaster recovery plan should contain data, hardware, and
software that can be critical for a business. It should also include the plan for sudden loss such as hard disc crash. The business should use backup and data recovery utilities to limit the loss of data.

Which of the following can be done over telephone lines, e-mail, instant messaging, and any other method of communication considered private.
Shielding
Spoofing
Eavesdropping
Packaging
Eavesdropping is the process of listening in private conversations. It also includes attackers listening in on the network traffic. For example, it can be done over telephone
lines (wiretapping), e-mail, instant messaging, and any other method of communication considered private.
Answer option B is incorrect. Spoofing is a technique that makes a transmission appear to have come from an authentic source by forging the IP address, email address, caller ID,
etc. In IP spoofing, a hacker modifies packet headers by using someone else's IP address to hide his identity. However, spoofing cannot be used while surfing the Internet, chatting
on-line, etc. because forging the source IP address causes the responses to be misdirected. Answer option A is incorrect. Shielding cannot be done over e-mail and instant messaging.
Shielding is a way of preventing electronic emissions that are generated from a computer or network from being used by unauthorized users for gathering confidential information.
It minimizes the chances of eavesdropping within a network. Shielding can be provided by surrounding a computer room with a Farady cage. A Farady cage is a device that prevents
electromagnetic signal emissions from going outside the computer room. Shielding can also protect wireless networks from denial of service (DoS) attacks.Answer option D is incorrect. Packaging is a process in which goods are differentiated on the basis of the container in which they are stored, such as bottles, boxes, bags, etc.

You work as the Senior Project manager in Dotcoiss Inc. Your company has started a software project using configuration management and has completed 70% of it. You need to ensure that the network infrastructure devices and networking standards used in this project are installed in accordance with the requirements of its detailed project design documentation. Which of the following procedures will you employ to accomplish the task?
Configuration identification
Physical configuration audit
Configuration control
Functional configuration audit
Physical Configuration Audit (PCA) is one of the practices used in Software
Configuration Management for Software Configuration Auditing. The purpose of the software PCA is to ensure that the design and reference documentation is consistent with the as-built software product. PCA checks and matches the really implemented layout with the documented layout.
Answer option D is incorrect. Functional Configuration Audit or FCA is one of the practices used in Software Configuration Management for Software Configuration Auditing. FCA occurs either at delivery or at the moment of effecting the change. A Functional Configuration Audit ensures that functional and performance attributes of a configuration item are achieved.
Answer option C is incorrect. Configuration control is a procedure of the Configuration
management. Configuration control is a set of processes and approval stages required to change a configuration item's attributes and to re-baseline them. It supports the change of the functional and physical attributes of software at various points in time, and performs systematic control of changes to the identified attributes.
Answer option A is incorrect. Configuration identification is the process of identifying the attributes that define every aspect of a configuration item. A configuration item is a product (hardware and/or software) that has an end-user purpose. These attributes are recorded in configuration documentation and baselined. Baselining an attribute forces formal configuration change control processes to be effected in the event that these attributes are changed.
In which of the following mechanisms does an authority, within limitations, specify what
objects can be accessed by a subject?
Role-Based Access Control
Discretionary Access Control
Task-based Access Control
Mandatory Access Control
In the discretionary access control, an authority, within limitations, specifies what objects
can be accessed by a subject.
Answer option D is incorrect. In the mandatory access control, a subject's access to an
object is dependent on labels.
Answer option A is incorrect. In the role-based access control, a central authority
determines what individuals can have access to which objects based on the individual's role or title in the organization.
Answer option C is incorrect. The task-based access control is similar to role-based access control, but the controls are based on the subject's responsibilities and duties.

Which of the following access control models are used in the commercial sector? Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose two.
Clark-Biba model
Clark-Wilson model
Bell-LaPadula model
Biba model
The Biba and Clark-Wilson access control models are used in the commercial sector. The
Biba model is a formal state transition system of computer security policy that describes a set of access control rules designed to ensure data integrity. Data and subjects are grouped
into ordered levels of integrity. The model is designed so that subjects may not corrupt data in a level ranked higher than the subject, or be corrupted by data from a lower level than the subject.The Clark-Wilson security model provides a foundation for specifying and analyzing an integrity policy for a computing system.
Answer option C is incorrect. The Bell-LaPadula access control model is mainly used in military systems.
Answer option A is incorrect. There is no such access control model as Clark-Biba.
