[All 312-85 Questions]

Andrews and Sons Corp. has decided to share threat information among sharing partners. Garry, a threat analyst, working in Andrews and Sons Corp., has asked to follow a trust model necessary to establish trust between sharing partners. In the trust model used by him, the first organization makes use of a body of evidence in a second organization, and the level of trust between two organizations depends on the degree and quality of evidence provided by the first organization.

Which of the following types of trust model is used by Garry to establish the trust?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

In the trust model described, where trust between two organizations depends on the degree and quality of evidence provided by the first organization, the model in use is 'Validated Trust.' This model relies on the validation of evidence or credentials presented by one party to another to establish trust. The validation process assesses the credibility, reliability, and relevance of the information shared, forming the basis of the trust relationship between the sharing partners. This approach is common in threat intelligence sharing where the accuracy and reliability of shared information are critical. Reference:

'Building a Cybersecurity Culture,' ISACA

'Trust Models in Information Security,' Journal of Internet Services and Applications

D) Validated trust, for sure. Anything else would be like trying to trust a used car salesman without checking under the hood.

Definitely D) Validated trust. The key phrase is "the level of trust between two organizations depends on the degree and quality of evidence provided by the first organization."

I think it might be direct historical trust since it relies on past evidence, but I’m not confident. I need to review the definitions again.

I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this in practice exams. Mediated trust seems to fit, but I’m confused about how evidence plays into it.

I remember studying trust models, and I think the one that involves evidence from another organization sounds like validated trust, but I'm not entirely sure.

This is a tricky one. I'm not super familiar with the different types of trust models, so I'm not 100% sure which one is being used here. I'm going to take a closer look at the details and try to eliminate the options that don't seem to fit. Hopefully, that will help me narrow it down to the correct answer.

Okay, I think I've got this figured out. The question is asking about the type of trust model used, and based on the information provided, it sounds like it's a "Validated trust" model. The first organization is providing evidence to the second, and the level of trust depends on the quality of that evidence. That fits the description of option D, "Validated trust."

I recall that validated trust is about verifying the evidence provided, so that might be the right answer. It’s tricky though!

Alright, I think I've got it. After re-reading the question a few times, I'm pretty confident that the answer is option D, "Validated trust." The key details are that the first organization provides evidence to the second, and the level of trust depends on the quality and degree of that evidence. That sounds like a validated trust model to me.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by this question. The details about the trust model and the organizations sharing threat information are a bit complex. I'm not entirely sure which trust model is being used here. I might need to re-read the question a few times to make sure I understand it properly before answering.

I think this question is asking about the type of trust model used in the scenario. The key details seem to be that the first organization provides evidence to the second organization, and the level of trust depends on the quality and degree of that evidence. Based on that, I'm leaning towards option C, "Direct historical trust."
