WGU - C700 - PreAssessment
An organization that uses a client-server model permits remote user machines to
access its network and distributed resources. With this setup, the organization
recognizes that remotely used client machines can become threats.
Which requirement should this company subject its remote clients to in order to secure
data and communications in the system?
Create a fortress mentality for secure data communications
Run processes in user and supervisory modes at the same time
Allow users only minimal but not necessary access to sensitive resources
Install restricted user-interface mechanisms and database management systems -
Install restricted user-interface mechanisms and database management systems
A technology-based firm wants to implement secure data communication between
secure desktops to a remote server while keeping reliability as the most important
requirement in its scope.
Which kind of secure data communication should be used within a WAN environment?
Transmission control protocol (TCP)
User datagram protocol (UDP)
Point-to-point protocol (PPP)
Hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) - Transmission control protocol (TCP)
A systems developer needs to reduce or eliminate the vulnerability of impersonation.
Which security solution should this system developer adopt?
Restrict access
Digital signatures
Blacklist services
Blocking attachments - Digital signatures
A systems developer needs to create a subscription system for a list of known email
abuse sources.
Which solution should be used to create this item?
Blacklist services
Whitelist services
Subscription services
,Domain name services - Blacklist services
A software developer needs to secure emails for a bank using a public-private key
system. The system should include a variety of algorithms that encrypt files and email
messages.
Which email security solution should this developer use?
Pretty good privacy
DomainKeys identified mail
Post office protocol 3 (POP3)
Simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) - Pretty good privacy
Which service manages the monitoring of devices within the application layer?
File transfer protocol (FTP)
Point-to-point protocol (PPP)
Hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS)
Simple network management protocol (SNMP) - Simple network management protocol
(SNMP)
Which service is managed at the transport layer of the TCP/IP stack?
Network file services (NFS)

A consultant explains that there is no mechanism within internet control message
protocol (ICMP) for the retransmission of lost or damaged packets.
Why are ICMP error messages sent to the host?
Transmission control protocol (TCP) connection-related protocols can detect errors.
They help the sending process or its human user to diagnose problems.
Connection- or session-related protocols detect errors in the local area network (LAN).
ICMP automatically retransmits every other packet to support WAN connectivity. - They
help the sending process or its human user to diagnose problems.
According to error logs associated with the local area network (LAN), one of the layers
of the OSI model needs to be used to provide error correction.
Which layer should be used?
Session
Data link
Transport
Application - Transport
A software developer needs to disconnect a transmission control protocol (TCP)
session when a communication session is complete.
What is the first packet that ensures this process?
FIN flagged packet
SYN flagged packet
ACK flagged packet
RST flagged packet - FIN flagged packet
A software developer establishes a communication between a web server and a web
browser over a network connection.
Which protocol is encapsulated in the transmission control protocol (TCP) to ensure this
action?
User datagram protocol (UDP)
File transfer protocol (FTP)
Simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP)
