Preview Questions Cybersecurity Specialist (Defense) | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: What is the significance of "Role-Based Access Control" (RBAC) in securing systems within defense networks?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

RBAC assigns permissions based on the roles of users, reducing the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive data

RBAC eliminates the need for encryption by controlling user access

RBAC encrypts user passwords to prevent access to classified information

RBAC is used only for physical security measures, not digital access

Question 2: What is the significance of conducting a penetration test alongside a vulnerability assessment in a defense environment?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It simulates real-world attacks to exploit vulnerabilities and provides a more realistic assessment of potential risks

It only checks for compliance and does not simulate attacks

It focuses solely on finding software bugs without simulating adversarial tactics

It prioritizes financial costs over security risks

Question 3: How does "Configuration Drift" impact vulnerability assessments in a defense environment?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Configuration drift occurs only in cloud environments, not on-premise

Configuration drift affects only software systems, not hardware

Configuration drift is irrelevant in high-security defense systems

Configuration drift leads to misconfigurations, creating vulnerabilities that may not be detected by standard security tools

Question 4: In defense network risk management, why is it essential to continuously update threat intelligence feeds?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To maintain compliance with outdated standards and regulations

To reduce the overall cost of cybersecurity measures

To ensure that the network is aware of emerging threats and can proactively adjust defenses

To minimize the need for manual security interventions

Question 5: What is the significance of "Network Redundancy" in maintaining network security for aerospace and defense systems?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Network redundancy slows down the network and is unnecessary for small systems

Network redundancy ensures that backup paths are available in case of network failure or attack, ensuring continuous operation

Network redundancy is irrelevant in military-grade networks

Network redundancy is only needed for large-scale enterprise systems

Question 6: How can cybersecurity specialists ensure secure access to defense network systems for remote users?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By using only basic username and password authentication for remote access

By blocking remote access entirely and requiring users to be onsite

By implementing secure remote access solutions like VPNs with strong encryption and MFA

By allowing unrestricted access to internal systems for all remote users
