A security manager is implementing MFA and patch management. Which of the following would best describe the control type and category? (Select two).

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Adding a random string of characters, known as a 'salt,' to a password before hashing it is known as salting. This technique strengthens passwords by ensuring that even if two users have the same password, their hashes will be different due to the unique salt, making it much harder for attackers to crack passwords using precomputed tables. Reference: CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 course content and official CompTIA study resources.

Both are technical controls, no doubt about it!

I definitely remember that MFA is technical, but patch management could also be seen as a managerial control, right?

I practiced a similar question where we had to categorize controls, and I feel like managerial might fit somewhere, but I can't recall exactly how.

I think both MFA and patch management fall under preventative controls, but I might be mixing it up with detective controls.

I've got a good handle on control types and categories, so I think I can tackle this question. Time to carefully read through the options and select the two that best fit the scenario.

Ah, this is a tricky one. I'm a bit unsure about the difference between detective and preventative controls. I'll have to review those definitions before answering.

Okay, let's see. Physical, managerial, and technical controls all seem relevant here. I'll need to analyze each one to figure out the best combination.

Ugh, segment reporting questions are always tricky. I'll need to take my time and double-check my work to make sure I don't miss anything. Hopefully, I can eliminate some of the options and narrow it down.

I'm a little unsure about this one. The question mentions that the order entry staff doesn't know the shipping and handling information at the time the order is processed, so I'm not sure if the defaulting rules in option B would work. Maybe option D, setting up a related item that prompts for the amount at ship confirm, could be a better solution.

Wait, is better caching really an advantage of multi-stage builds? I'm a little confused on how that works - I'll need to review this topic again.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'm going to eliminate the options that don't seem relevant, like Device Manager and Programs and Features. Then I'll focus on comparing Windows Update and Windows Installer to see which one is more likely to handle automatic driver updates.

Okay, let me see if I can break this down. We've got performance issues with the cloud storage, a need for usage monitoring and billing, and an issue with real-time availability reporting. I think I'll need to focus on the key patterns that can address those specific challenges.
