Review Questions - SYS701 - 9 - Resilience and Physical Security

Naomi wants to handle increasing load by scaling cloud-hosted resources as needed while having the change remain transparent to users. She also wants to allow for upgrades and system replacements transparently. What solution should she select?

Rick performs a backup that captures the changes since the last full backup. What type of backup has he performed?

What type of recovery site has some or most systems in place but does not have the data needed to take over operations?

Ben wants to test his warm site to verify that it will take over operations successfully. What type of testing is this?

Felix wants to clone a virtual machine. What should he do to capture a live machine, including the machine state?

Sally is working to restore her organization's operations after a disaster took her datacenter offline. What critical document should she refer to as she restarts systems?

Mike wants to stop vehicles from traveling toward the entrance of his building. What physical security control should he implement?

Alecia wants to ensure that her backups cannot be accessed by third parties while stored in an offsite storage location. What should she do to secure her backups?

Fred wants to be able to recover his database transactions at any point in time if a physical disaster occurs involving his datacenter. His organization uses daily backups. What additional solution should he select to support this need?

Ellen is concerned about her company's resilience and wants to ensure it can handle either changing loads or support disaster recovery and business continuity efforts if a primary location or datacenter were taken offline. Which of the following should she primarily focus on during her capacity planning?

Madhuri has deployed a replication tool that copies data over to a secondary hot site in real time. What type of replication has she deployed?

What factor is a major reason organizations do not use security guards?

Megan wants to deploy a sensor that is inexpensive, yet will allow her to detect humans entering and moving in a secured room. Which of the following should she select?

Kathleen wants to discourage potential attackers from entering the facility she is responsible for. Which of the following is not a common control used for this type of preventive defense?

How does technology diversity help ensure cybersecurity resilience?

Scott sends his backups to a company that keeps them in a secure vault. What type of backup solution has he implemented?

Gabby wants to detect physical brute-force attempts against her organization. What solution is best suited to this?
