1. Right Answer: B
Explanation: A biometric device will ensure that only the authorized user can access the data center. A mantrap, by itself, would not be effective. Closed-circuit television(CCTV) and a security guard provide a detective control, but would not be as effective in authenticating the access rights of each individual.
2. Right Answer: B
Explanation: Developing procedures and guidelines to ensure that business processes address information security risk is critical to the management of an information security program. Developing procedures and guidelines establishes a baseline for security program performance and consistency of security activities.
3. Right Answer: D
Explanation: Ensuring all logical access is removed will guarantee that the former employee will not be able to access company data and that the employee's credentials will not be misused. Retrieving identification badge and card keys would only reduce the capability to enter the building. Retrieving the personal computer equipment and the employee's folders are necessary tasks, but that should be done as a second step.
4. Right Answer: A
Explanation: Without formal documentation, it would be difficult to ensure that security processes are performed in the proper manner every time that they are performed.Alignment with business objectives is not a function of formally documenting security procedures. Processes should not be formally documented merely to satisfy an audit requirement. Although potentially useful in the development of metrics, creating formal documentation to assist in the creation of metrics is a secondary objective.
5. Right Answer: D
Explanation: Security awareness regarding intellectual property policy will not prevent violations of this policy. Requiring all employees to sign a nondisclosure agreement and promptly removing all access when an employee leaves the organization are good controls, but not as effective as restricting access to a need-to- know basis.
