Qualitative risk analysis is the best answer as it is a fast and low-cost approach to analyze the risk impact and its effect. It can promote

certain risks onto risk response planning. Qualitative Risk Analysis uses the likelihood and impact of the identified risks in a fast and cost-

effective manner. Qualitative Risk Analysis establishes a basis for a focused quantitative analysis or Risk Response Plan by evaluating the

precedence of risks with a concern to impact on the project's scope, cost, schedule, and quality objectives. The qualitative risk analysis is

conducted at any point in a project life cycle. The primary goal of qualitative risk analysis is to determine proportion of effect and theoretical

response. The inputs to the Qualitative Risk Analysis process are:

Organizational process assets

Project Scope Statement

Risk Management Plan

Risk Register

Answer B is incorrect. Historical information can be helpful in the qualitative risk analysis, but it is not the best answer for the question

as historical information is not always available (consider new projects).

Answer D is incorrect. Quantitative risk analysis is in-depth and often requires a schedule and budget for the analysis.

Answer C is incorrect. Rolling wave planning is not a valid answer for risk analysis processes.

An Intrusion detection system (IDS) is software and/or hardware designed to detect unwanted attempts at accessing, manipulating, and/or

disabling of computer systems, mainly through a network, such as the Internet. These attempts may take the form of attacks, as examples, by

crackers, malware and/or disgruntled employees. An IDS cannot directly detect attacks within properly encrypted traffic. An intrusion detection

system is used to detect several types of malicious behaviors that can compromise the security and trust of a computer system. This includes

network attacks against vulnerable services, data driven attacks on applications, host based attacks such as privilege escalation,

unauthorized logins and access to sensitive files, and malware (viruses, trojan horses, and worms).

Answer D is incorrect. Access Control List (ACL) is the most commonly used object in Cisco IOS. It filters packets or network traffic by

controlling whether routed packets are forwarded or blocked at the router's interfaces. According to the criteria specified within the access

lists, router determines whether the packets to be forwarded or dropped. Access control list criteria could be the source or destination

address of the traffic or other information. The types of Cisco ACLs are Standard IP, Extended IP, IPX, Appletalk, etc.

Answer B is incorrect. Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) is a method of securing data. It secures traffic by using encryption and digital

signing. It enhances the security of data as if an IPSec packet is captured, its contents cannot be read. IPSec also provides sender verification

that ensures the certainty of the datagram's origin to the receiver.

Answer A is incorrect. Direct-attached storage (DAS) is a digital storage system that is directly attached to a server or workstation,

without using a storage network.

NIACAP accreditation is of three types depending on what is being certified. They are as follows:

1.Site accreditation: This type of accreditation evaluates the applications and systems at a specific, self contained location.

2.Type accreditation: This type of accreditation evaluates an application or system that is distributed to a number of different locations.

3.System accreditation: This accreditation evaluates a major application or general support system.

Answer C is incorrect. No such type of NIACAP accreditation exists.

The Recovery Point Objective (RPO) describes the acceptable amount of data loss measured in time. It is the point in time to which data must

be recovered as defined by the organization. The RPO is generally a definition of what an organization determines is an 'acceptable loss' in a

disaster situation. If the RPO of a company is 2 hours and the time it takes to get the data back into production is 5 hours, the RPO is still 2

hours. Based on this RPO the data must be restored to within 2 hours of the disaster.

Answer B is incorrect. The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is the duration of time and a service level within which a business process

must be restored after a disaster or disruption in order to avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a break in business continuity. It

includes the time for trying to fix the problem without a recovery, the recovery itself, tests and the communication to the users. Decision time

for user representative is not included. The business continuity timeline usually runs parallel with an incident management timeline and may

start at the same, or different, points.

In accepted business continuity planning methodology, the RTO is established during the Business Impact Analysis (BIA) by the owner of a

process (usually in conjunction with the Business Continuity planner). The RTOs are then presented to senior management for acceptance.

The RTO attaches to the business process and not the resources required to support the process.

Answer D is incorrect. The Recovery Time Actual (RTA) is established during an exercise, actual event, or predetermined based on

recovery methodology the technology support team develops. This is the time frame the technology support takes to deliver the recovered

infrastructure to the business.

Answer C is incorrect. The Recovery Consistency Objective (RCO) is used in Business Continuity Planning in addition to Recovery Point

Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO). It applies data consistency objectives to Continuous Data Protection services.

Following are the various international information security standards:

Risk assessment and treatment: Analysis of the organization's information security risks

Security policy: Management direction

Organization of information security: Governance of information security

Asset management: Inventory and classification of information assets

Human resources security: Security aspects for employees joining, moving, and leaving an organization

Physical and environmental security: Protection of the computer facilities

Communications and operations management: Management of technical security controls in systems and networks

Access control: Restriction of access rights to networks, systems, applications, functions, and data

Information systems acquisition, development and maintenance: Building security into applications

Information security incident management: Anticipating and responding appropriately to information security breaches

Business continuity management: Protecting, maintaining, and recovering business-critical processes and systems

Compliance: Ensuring conformance with information security policies, standards, laws, and regulations

Answer A is incorrect. AU audit and accountability is a U.S. Federal Government information security standard.
