Design Secure Network Architecture - 25% - ANSWER: Section 1
Identity and Access Management - ANSWER: A framework of policies and
technologies used to manage digital identities and control user access to a resource
within an organization
Password Policy - ANSWER: Rules set to enforce strong password creation and
management, including requirements for length, history, complexity, and more.
Privileged Access Management - ANSWER: A security practice that monitors and
controls access to critical systems and data by users with elevated access (e.g. admin
accounts)
Password Complexity - ANSWER: A set of rules designed to make a password
stronger and more difficult to crack or guess.
Kerberos - ANSWER: A network authentication protocol that uses symmetric key
cryptography to securely authenticate users and services over the network.
Mandatory Access Control (MAC) - ANSWER: A security model where access to
resources is determined by system-enforced policies. Access is granted based on labels
or classifications. (e.g. "Top Secret")
Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) - ANSWER: A security model where access
to resources is determined by attributes such as user role, location, time of access, etc...
In-band authentication - ANSWER: A security method where authentication occurs
within the same communication channel used to access the service or system. An
example will include receiving a verification token on the same device you are using to
login.
Out-of-Band authentication - ANSWER: A security method where authentication
occurs using a separate communication channel from the primary one. An example
includes receiving a verification email with a code to confirm your identity.
