Security Architecture and Design Practice Question
Question
A client-facing situation requires a compliant response for the CompTIA Security+ involving SQL injection in Security Architecture and Design. Which answer is best? (Item 3)
Answer choices
- A. Document nothing because documentation could create follow-up questions.
- B. Rely on informal custom instead of the applicable rule, control, or standard.
- 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 SQL injection scenario.
- D. Skip verification because the previous case had the same answer.
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 SQL injection scenario.
Explanation
The correct answer is C because SQL injection 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.
