Question: 216 | Difficulty: 4/5 | Relevancy: 3/3 There are parallels between the trust models in Kerberos and in PKI. When we compare them side by side, Kerberos tickets correspond most close
2、ly to which of the following?o public keys o private keys o public-key certificates o private-key certificates C. A Kerberos ticket is issued by a trusted third party; it is an encrypted data structure that includes the service encryption key. In that sense it is similar to a public-key certificate.
3、 However, the ticket is not a key. And there is no such thing as a private key certificate.Study areas: CISSP CBK domain #1 - Access Control, CISSP CBK domain #5 - CryptographyCovered topics (2): Kerberos, X.509 Digital certificates This question Copyright 20032009 cccure.org. 2.

6、 A timely review of system access audit records would be an example of which of the basic security functions?o avoidance. o deterrence. o prevention. o detection. D. The correct answer is:detection. By reviewing system logs you can detect events that have occured.The following answers are incorrect:
7、avoidance. This is incorrect, avoidance is a distractor. By reviewing system logs you have not avoided anything.deterrence. This is incorrect because system logs are a history of past events. You cannot deter something that has already occurred.prevention. This is incorrect because system logs are a
8、 history of past events. You cannot prevent something that has already occurred. Last modified 6/08/2007 - J. HajecComment: A timely review of the audit logs would provide early detection of possible and intentional abuses but does nothing to prevent occurrence of abuses, if any. An early detection
9、would lead to prevention of much serious abuses later on. Auditing can be seen as a detection exercise more than a preventive exercise.References:OIG CBK Glossary (page 791)Contributor: Kamren LeeStudy area: CISSP CBK domain #1 - Access ControlCovered topic: Account, log and journal monitoring This

Question: 7 | Difficulty: 2/5 | Relevancy: 3/3 Which of the following is true in a system with Mandatory Access Control?o The system determines which users or groups may access a file. o A user can set up an access list for the file(s), and the syste
39、m checks both users and groups against this list before granting access. o A user can specify which groups of users can access their files, but the system determines group membership. o No control is being enforced on this model. A. Thecorrect answer is: The system determines which users or groups m
40、ay access a file. Access in a MAC environmentis controlled by the system based upon the sensitivity levels of the subjects and objects.The following answers are incorrect:A user can set up an access list for the file(s), and the system checks both users and groups against this list before granting a
41、ccess. With MAC it is the data owner and the system administrator and not the user who can specify which groups of users can access their files. A user can specify which groups of users can access their files, but the system determines group membership. A user cannot set up an access list for the fi
42、le(s), and the system checks both users and groups against this list before granting access.No control is being enforced on this model. No control is being enforced on this model isa false answer because using MAC, the system enforces the security based upon the sensitivity levels of the subjects an
43、d objects.Last modified 6/06/2007 - J. HajecQA checked by M. ZagorskiComment: Mandatory Access Control (MAC) is a policy based control. All objects and systemshave a sensitivity level assigned to them. A particular subject can only accesa given object if the objects sensitivity level allows for it a
44、nd the subject has the proper need-to-know. The sensitivity levels are determinded by the data owner and the system administrator.

B. In the Clark-Wilson model, data that transformational procedure
47、s modify are called constrained data items (not unconstrained data items) because they are constrained in the sense that only transformational procedures may modify them and that integrity verification procedures exercise constraints on them to ensure that they have certain properties, of which cons
48、istency and conformance to the real world are two of the most significant. Unconstrained data items are all other data, chiefly the keyed input to transformational procedures.Source: DUPUIS, Cl?ment, Access Control Systems and Methodology CISSP Open Study Guide, version 1.0, march 2002 (page 40).
