EC-Council 312-38 Exam - Topic 2 Question 124 Discussion

Posted by Viola on Jul 01, 2026 at 02:51 PM

Which of the following is an example of MAC model?

Suggested Answer: D

The Bell-LaPadula model is an example of a Mandatory Access Control (MAC) model. It is designed to maintain the confidentiality of information by enforcing access controls based on security classification levels. This model ensures that subjects (users) with a certain clearance level cannot read data at a higher classification level (no read-up) and cannot write data to a lower classification level (no write-down), thus preventing unauthorized access and information flow not permitted by the policy.

I’m a bit confused about the differences between these models. I thought the Clark-Beason model was more about integrity, not MAC.

The Access Control Matrix model sounds familiar, but I don't think it's a MAC model. I feel like I saw a similar question in our practice tests.

I remember studying the Bell-LaPadula model in relation to confidentiality, so I might lean towards that one for the MAC example.

I think the MAC model is related to access control, but I'm not sure if it's the Clark-Beason model or the Bell-LaPadula model.
