Security Architecture and Design Practice Question

Question

A scenario includes a common misconception for the CompTIA Security+ involving network segmentation in Security Architecture and Design. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 167)

Answer choices

1. A. Skip verification because the previous case had the same answer.
2. B. Document nothing because documentation could create follow-up questions.
3. C. The best answer is to choose the control or response that reduces risk while preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountable security operations for the network segmentation scenario.
4. D. Rely on informal custom instead of the applicable rule, control, or standard.

Correct Answer

C. The best answer is to choose the control or response that reduces risk while preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountable security operations for the network segmentation scenario.

Explanation

The correct answer is C because network segmentation is tested by asking candidates to choose the control or response that reduces risk while preserving confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountable security operations. The distractors reflect common exam mistakes: ignoring context, using informal shortcuts, skipping verification, or applying a rule from the wrong domain.
