Governance, Risk, and Compliance Practice Question

Question

A scenario includes a common misconception for the CompTIA Security+ involving incident containment in Governance, Risk, and Compliance. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 12)

Answer choices

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

Correct Answer

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

Explanation

The correct answer is D because incident containment 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.
