Actual exam question for ISC2's ISSAP exam
Question #: 83
Topic #: 2
[All ISSAP Questions]

Which of the following are the centralized administration technologies? Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

biophysical qualities to identify a user. Nowadays, the usage of biometric devices such as hand scanners and retinal scanners is becoming

more common in the business environment. It is the most secure method of authentication.

Answer option C is incorrect. Username and password is the least secure method of authentication in comparison of smart card and biometrics

authentication. Username and password can be intercepted.

Answer option A is incorrect. Smart card authentication is not as reliable as biometrics authentication.

Answer option B is incorrect. Anonymous authentication does not provide security as a user can log on to the system anonymously and he is

not prompted for credentials.

Peer-to-Peer? No way, that's not centralized at all!

I’m a bit confused about this one. I thought Media Access Control was more about network access control rather than centralized administration.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I believe RADIUS and TACACS+ were the only centralized technologies listed. Media Access Control doesn't seem right.

I think both RADIUS and TACACS+ are correct, but I can't recall if Peer-to-Peer is considered centralized. It seems more decentralized to me.

I remember studying RADIUS and TACACS+ as centralized authentication methods, but I'm not sure if Media Access Control fits in this category.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. RADIUS and TACACS+ are the two centralized administration technologies listed, so I'll select those. The other two options don't seem to fit the description in the question.

Okay, I've got this. RADIUS and TACACS+ are definitely centralized administration technologies, as they provide a centralized way to manage user authentication and authorization. Media Access Control and Peer-to-Peer are not centralized, so those are not the right answers.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know RADIUS and TACACS+ are authentication protocols, but I'm not sure if they count as "centralized administration technologies." Let me re-read the question carefully.

This looks like a networking question on centralized administration technologies. I'll need to think through the different options and their definitions to determine which ones are correct.

Okay, let me think this through. If the rule was disabled, that means it's likely not a connectivity issue. The number of alerts or permissions changes seem more plausible. I'll need to weigh the evidence carefully.

This looks like a tricky SAX processing question. I'll need to carefully read through the details about the DTD, XML document, and SAX processing to determine the correct output.

Quick tip: Always look for the most comprehensive security risk. Option C directly mentions a known method viruses spread - random executable downloads.

RADIUS and TACACS+ are the centralized admin techs, duh. The other two options are like trying to use a screwdriver to hammer in a nail - they just don't fit the question at all. Gotta love these tricky multiple-choice questions!

RADIUS and TACACS+ are definitely the right answers here. The other two options are just completely irrelevant to the question. I bet the person who wrote this question was having a bit too much fun trying to trick us.

Hmm, this one's tricky. I'm leaning towards RADIUS and TACACS+ since they're used for centralized user management, but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe I should double-check my networking notes just to be safe.

RADIUS and TACACS+ seem like the obvious choices here, as they are centralized authentication and authorization protocols. Media Access Control is more about network access, and Peer-to-Peer is decentralized, so those don't seem to fit the question.
