Computing Concepts and Operating Systems

Which of the following aspects is not covered by the CIA triad?

• Confidentiality

• Integrity

• Availability

• Non-repudiation

What is the purpose of non-repudiation?

• To ensure accountability by proving actions were taken by an individual or entity, thus preventing disputes

• To protect data from unauthorized disclosure

• To guarantee data remains unchanged from its creation, transmission, or storage

• To ensure data is available when needed

Which two aspects are covered by the two pillars of information security?

• Confidentiality and integrity

• Integrity and availability

• Non-repudiation and authentication

• Authentication and confidentiality

Which of the following is not a component of IAA?

• Confidentiality

• Integrity

• Availability

• Non-repudiation

What is the purpose of IAA?

• To prevent security incidents by using measures such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and security policies

• To ensure accountability by proving actions were taken by an individual or entity, thus preventing disputes

• To guarantee data remains unchanged from its creation, transmission, or storage

• To protect data from unauthorized disclosure

What does IAA strive to maintain?

• Confidentiality, integrity, and availability of informational assets

• Data accessibility for authorized individuals or systems

• Trustworthiness in electronic transactions

• Non-repudiation and authentication

What is the interrelationship of process, people, and technology in IAA?

• Procedures, policies, and guidelines are processes that organizations use to ensure secure information protection

• Safeguarding information assets relies on the participation of people such as employees, contractors, and stakeholders

• Integrating technology with processes and people is crucial to maximize security benefits

• All of the above

What is the purpose of protection rings?

• To guard the kernel and bestow different levels of access to resources

• To provide a command-line interface, customisation, stability, and security

• To support various software applications and gaming

• To protect the kernel from dangerous or poorly coded software

Which ring is the least privileged?

• Ring 0

• Ring 1

• Ring 2

• Ring 3

What is Kernel mode?

• Where user-level applications operate with limited system resource access

• Where the most privileged ring is found

• Where system resources are directly accessed by user-level applications

• Where user-level applications are preserved
