C836 CHAPTER 1-6 WGU with correct questions and answers. FISMA (Federal Information Security Modernization Act) - correct law provides a framework for ensuring the effectiveness of information security controls in federal government - changed from Management (2002) to Modernization in 2014 HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) - correct law improves the efficiency and effectiveness of the health care system and protects patient privacy FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) - correct law protects the privacy of students and their parents SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley Act) - correct law regulates the financial practice and governance of corporations GLBA (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) - correct law protects the customers of financial institutions compliance - correct ing to an organization's adherence to laws, regulations, and standards regulatory compliance - correct answers.Regulations mandated by law usually requiring regular audits and assessments industry compliance - correct answers.Regulations or standards designed for specific industries that may impact ability to conduct business (e.g. PCI DSS) privacy - correct state or condition of being free from being observed or disturbed by other people The Federal Privacy Act of 1974 - correct answers.This act safeguards privacy through the establishment of procedural and substantive rights in personal data privacy rights - correct answers.Rights relating to the protection of an individual's personal information PII (Personally Identifiable Information) - correct answers.Information that can be used to identify an individual, and should be protected as sensitive data and monitored for compliance cryptography - correct science of keeping information secure Cryptanalysis - correct answers.The science of breaking through the encryption used to create ciphertext cryptology - correct answers.The overarching field of study that covers cryptography and cryptanalysis cryptographic algorithm (cipher) - correct answers.The specifics of the process used to encrypt plaintext or decrypt ciphertext plaintext (cleartext) - correct rypted data ciphertext - correct pted data Caesar cipher - correct ancient cryptographic technique based on transposition; involves shifting each letter of a plaintext message by a certain number of letters (historically 3) ROT13 cipher - correct answers.a more recent cipher that uses the same mechanism as the Caesar cipher but moves each letter 13 places forward symmetric key cryptography (private key cryptography) - correct a single key for both encryption of the plaintext and decryption of the ciphertext block cipher - correct answers.A type of cipher that takes a predetermined number of bits in the plaintext message (commonly 64 bits) and encrypts that block stream cipher - correct answers.A type of cipher that encrypts each bit in the plaintext message, 1 bit at a time AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) - correct answers.A set of symmetric block ciphers endorsed by the US government through NIST. Shares the same block modes that DES uses and also includes other modes such as XEX-based Tweaked CodeBook (TCB) mode
