You need to perform an architectural review and select a view that focuses on the technologies,
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




settings, and configurations used within the architecture. Which of the following views
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




should you select? |||||| ||||||




A.Logical view ||||||




B.Operational view ||||||




C.Acquisition view ||||||




D.Technical view - ...,.🔹VERIFIED ANSWER **✔✔D.Technical view |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




(Correct)

Explanation

OBJ-2.1: A technical view focuses on technologies, settings, and configurations. An
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




operational view looks at how a function is performed or what it accomplishes. A logical view |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




describes how systems interconnect. An acquisition views focus on the procurement process.

,Dion Training wants to get an external attacker's perspective on its security status. Which of
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




the following services should they purchase?
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




A.Patch management ||||||




B.Asset management ||||||




C.Vulnerability scan ||||||




D.Penetration test - ...,.🔹VERIFIED ANSWER **✔✔D.Penetration test |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




(Correct)

Explanation

OBJ-5.2: Penetration tests provide an organization with an external attacker's perspective on |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




their security status. The NIST process for penetration testing divides tests into four phases:
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




planning, discovery, attack, and reporting. The penetration test results are valuable security |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




planning tools, as they describe the actual vulnerabilities that an attacker might exploit to gain |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




access to a network. A vulnerability scan provides an assessment of your security posture from
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




an internal perspective. Asset management refers to a systematic approach to the governance
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




and realization of value from the things that a group or entity is responsible for over their
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




whole life cycles. It may apply both to tangible assets and intangible assets. Patch management
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




is the process that helps acquire, test, and install multiple patches (code changes) on existing
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




applications and software tools on a computer, enabling systems to stay updated on existing |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




patches and determining which patches are the appropriate ones. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Which term is used in software development to refer to the method in which app and platform
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




updates are committed to a production environment rapidly? |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




A.Continuous integration ||||||




(Incorrect)

B.Continuous monitoring ||||||




C.Continuous delivery ||||||




D,Continuous deployment - ...,.🔹VERIFIED ANSWER **✔✔D,Continuous deployment |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




(Correct)

,Explanation

OBJ-3.4: Continuous deployment is a software development method in which app and
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




platform updates are committed to production rapidly. Continuous delivery is a software
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




development method in which app and platform requirements are frequently tested and |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




validated for immediate availability. Continuous integration is a software development |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




method in which code updates are tested and committed to development or build server/code
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




repositories rapidly. Continuous monitoring is the technique of constantly evaluating an |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




environment for changes so that new risks may be more quickly detected and business |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




operations improved upon. While continuous deployment and continuous delivery sound |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




very similar, there is one key difference. In continuous delivery, a human is still required to
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




approve the release into the production environment. In continuous deployment, the test and
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




release process into the production environment is automated, making the changes available
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




for immediate release once the code is committed.

Which analysis framework provides a graphical depiction of the attacker's approach relative to
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




a kill chain?
|||||| |||||| ||||||




A.Lockheed Martin cyber kill chain |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||

C.MITRE ATT&CK framework |||||| ||||||




D.OpenIOC - ...,.🔹VERIFIED ANSWER **✔✔B.Diamond Model of Intrusion Analysis |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




(Correct)



Explanation

OBJ-1.2: The Diamond Model provides an excellent methodology for communicating cyber |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




events and allowing analysts to derive mitigation strategies implicitly. The Diamond Model is
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




constructed around a graphical representation of an attacker's behavior. The MITRE ATT&CK |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




framework provides explicit pseudo-code examples for detecting or mitigating a given threat
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




within a network and ties specific behaviors back to individual actors. The Lockheed Martin
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




cyber kill chain provides a general life cycle description of how attacks occur but does not deal
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




with the specifics of how to mitigate them. OpenIOC contains a depth of research on APTs but
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




does not integrate the detections and mitigation strategy.
