What are the three core principles of information security?

• Authentication, Integrity, Confidentiality

• Availability, Integrity, Confidentiality

• Compliance, Protection, Detection

• Accountability, Encryption, Authentication

2. How does encryption contribute to information security?

• It transforms data into unreadable format

• It limits access to information

• It detects unauthorized access attempts

• It removes malware from data

3. What does information integrity ensure?

• Data is accurate and unchanged

• Unauthozed access is prevented

• Data is encrypted for storage

• Information is only available during business hours

4. Why is availability crucial in information systems?

• • It keeps systems operational when needed

• • It restricts access to sensitive users only

• • It ensures only encrypted data is transmitted

• • It enables automatic system updates

5. How does information security differ from cybersecurity?

• • Cybersecurity is broader and includes management policies

• • Information security focuses on data, while cybersecurity deals with networks

• • Cybersecurity only applies to government agencies

• • Information security focuses only on physical security

6. Which of the following is NOT an access control measure?

• • Passwords

• • Security badges

• • Fingerprint scanners

• • Firewalls

7. What is the primary goal of encryption?

• • Protect data from unauthorized access

• • Improve database performance

• Detect data corruption

• • Manage network traffic

8. What is an information security policy?

• • A document outlining security rules

• • Guidelines to ensure system availability

• • Procedures for malware detection

• • A backup strategy for data loss

9. Which practice enhances security in an organization?

• • Disabling antivirus programs

• • Storing data on unprotected devices

• • Applying access control to critical resources

• • Using simple, easy-to-remember passwords

10. How does network segmentation improve security?

• • Limits the spread of cyberattacks

• • Reduces network traffic

• • Prevents external access

• • Increases data processing speed
