Identity, Access, and Cryptography Practice Question

Question

A student must apply the concept rather than define it only for the CompTIA Security+ involving network segmentation in Identity, Access, and Cryptography. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 167)

Answer choices

1. A. Assume the requirement applies only when the customer specifically asks about it.
2. B. Prioritize convenience over safety, compliance, or accurate reasoning.
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. Ignore the issue because speed is more important than documentation or accuracy.

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.
