Operations and Incident Response Practice Question

Question

A client-facing situation requires a compliant response for the CompTIA Security+ involving MFA in Operations and Incident Response. Which response best applies the concept? (Item 174)

Answer choices

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

Correct Answer

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

Explanation

The correct answer is B because MFA 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.
