Question

A real-world workflow requires a practical decision for the CompTIA Security+ involving network segmentation in Governance, Risk, and Compliance. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 167)

Answer choices

  1. A. Escalate only after taking irreversible action without reviewing the facts.

  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. Choose an answer that removes accountability from the responsible professional.

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.
