Preview Questions Cybersecurity Specialist (Defense) | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: How does "Scenario-Based Risk Assessment" enhance decision-making in risk management for defense cybersecurity?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Scenario-based risk assessment evaluates different potential attack scenarios, helping prioritize defenses and resources

It only focuses on past incidents and does not account for future risks

It focuses solely on compliance rather than operational security risks

It simplifies the process by only considering internal threats

Question 2: What is the role of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) in enhancing network security for defense systems?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It is used only for administrative accounts and not for general users

It is used to replace all other authentication methods for network access

It adds an extra layer of protection by requiring multiple forms of authentication before granting access

It is an optional security measure that can be bypassed for convenience

Question 3: What is the role of a risk appetite in the context of cybersecurity risk management for defense systems?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It defines the level of risk the organization is willing to accept based on the system's value, importance, and vulnerabilities

It focuses on compliance requirements rather than operational risk levels

It eliminates the need for proactive risk mitigation strategies

It dictates the maximum amount of budget allocated for cybersecurity measures

Question 4: What is the best approach for conducting a thorough risk assessment in a highly sensitive defense network environment?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By using automated tools without any manual review of risks

By only considering external threats and neglecting internal network weaknesses

By identifying potential vulnerabilities, assessing the impact of threats, and calculating the risk likelihood based on the network architecture

By focusing solely on software vulnerabilities and ignoring human factors

Question 5: What is the purpose of implementing a risk register in defense cybersecurity management?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To document and track identified risks, their assessments, mitigation actions, and outcomes to ensure continuous risk management

To store system configurations without reference to risk or mitigation strategies

To list all systems and assets without linking them to specific risks

To track the number of users accessing the network

Question 6: How does the use of SSH (Secure Shell) protocol help protect communication channels between defense systems?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By providing encrypted communication for secure access to network devices and remote administration

By monitoring all user sessions for unauthorized actions

By ensuring that all file transfers are automatically encrypted

By only allowing user access through password-based authentication
