I’m pretty confident that it’s 1, 2, and 5, but I could see how accounting might be confused with authorization.

I feel like I might be mixing up some terms here. Is Asymmetry even related to the AAA Triad?

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think it was Authentication, Availability, and Authorization that were the key components.

I think the AAA Triad is about security principles, but I’m not sure if accounting is one of them.

I've got a good strategy - I'll eliminate the incorporated options first, then select the two non-incorporated ones.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm not super familiar with the Cloud Data Loss Prevention API, so I'll need to read up on that before deciding.

I want to say 'Copy tool' is definitely a possibility, but what about 'All of the above or below'?

Wait, I thought the binding was more about the method of communication? I keep mixing them up, but I have a feeling it's not the answer here.

I'm with the group on this one. The AAA Triad has been drilled into our heads during the training, so there's no way I'm falling for that 'Asymmetry' trick. Gotta love the classic Information Security mind games!

D) 1, 3 and 5 seems like the obvious choice, but I guess the exam writers wanted to throw us off with that 'Asymmetry' option. Nice try, but I'm sticking with A).

Haha, I almost chose C) 1, 3 and 4. Asymmetry? Really? What's next, the ABCD Triad? Good thing I double-checked the correct answer.
