Which of the following are symmetric encryption algorithms? Select all that apply.

Incorrect
  1. A.AES
  2. B.3DES
  3. C.RSA
  4. D.Diffie-Hellman
  5. E.ChaCha20

Symmetric means one shared key: AES, 3DES, and ChaCha20 — the last one should have been selected. RSA is asymmetric key pairs, and Diffie-Hellman is key exchange, not encryption.

Which controls meaningfully reduce phishing risk? Select all that apply.

Incorrect
  1. A.Regular user awareness training
  2. B.Email filtering with link and attachment scanning
  3. C.Multi-factor authentication on all accounts
  4. D.Rotating passwords every two weeks
  5. E.Blocking all attachments organization-wide

Training and filtering cut the clicks; MFA is what saves you after the click — that one should have been selected. Aggressive rotation just produces sticky notes, and blocking every attachment blocks the business.

What belongs in an incident response plan? Select all that apply.

Correct
  1. A.Defined roles and an up-to-date contact list
  2. B.Containment and eradication procedures
  3. C.A blameless lessons-learned review
  4. D.Permanent admin access for all responders
  5. E.Evidence preservation and chain of custody

People, procedures, evidence, and the review afterward. Standing admin access for everyone is an incident waiting to happen, not a way to respond to one.
