In a cybersecurity operation where downtime is critical to its mission, a cybersecurity analyst
incorporates allowlists and denylists restrictions. The objective is to guarantee high availability
(HA) and safeguard against potential security threats. How would a cybersecurity analyst utilize
these lists in this scenario? (Select the two best options.) - CORRECT ANSWER-A. Allowlists can
specify approved software, hardware, and change types that are essential for the operation's
functioning.
D. Denylists can block unauthorized software, hardware, and change types that pose high risk
to the operation's availability and security.
How can a cybersecurity analyst effectively utilize version control to maintain a historical record
of changes and ensure security in the organization's IT systems and applications? - CORRECT
ANSWER-C. Use version control to track changes in network diagrams and configuration files.

and protecting critical data in the financial institution's infrastructure? - CORRECT ANSWER-A.
Secure enclave
An organization changes its security posture after a breach and wants to enhance encryption by
putting measures in place to mitigate risk exposures that cannot be directly eliminated by the
cyber security team. What type of control is being observed in this situation? - CORRECT
ANSWER-B. Compensating
The organization's engineering team observes a system failure during the implementation of
new software patching. From a conceptual standpoint, what can the team use to restore the
system to its original state? - CORRECT ANSWER-(A. Test results
B. Maintenance windows incorrect)
A software organization enhances its cyber security by using deception technologies to capture
attacker tactics and tools. How can a honeytoken assist in the organization's strategy? -
