Posted by Roselle on May 29, 2023 at 03:55 PM

Which of the following SDLC phases consists of the given security controls.

Misuse Case Modeling

Security Design and Architecture Review

Threat and Risk Modeling

Security Requirements and Test Cases Generation

Suggested Answer: A

The various security controls in the SDLC design phase are as follows.

Misuse Case Modeling. It is important that the inverse of the misuse cases be modeled to understand and address the security aspects of the software. The requirements traceability matrix can be used to track the misuse cases to the functionality of the software.

Security Design and Architecture Review. This control can be introduced when the teams are engaged in the 'functional' design and architecture review of the software.

Threat and Risk Modeling. Threat modeling determines the attack surface of the software by examining its functionality for trust boundaries, data flow, entry points, and exit points. Risk modeling is performed by ranking the threats as they pertain to the users organization's business objectives, compliance and regulatory requirements and security exposures.

Security Requirements and Test Cases Generation. All the above three security controls, i.e., Misuse Case Modeling, Security Design and Architecture Review, and Threat and Risk Modeling are used to produce the security requirements.

Wait, are we sure about that? Seems like it could fit in multiple phases.

Security should be integrated from the start, so Design makes sense.

I definitely recall that Misuse Case Modeling is part of the Design phase, but I can't remember if all the others fit there too.

I'm a bit confused; I thought some of these controls could also apply to the Requirements Gathering phase.

I remember practicing a question about SDLC phases, and I feel like "Security Design and Architecture Review" fits best in the Design phase.

I think the security controls mentioned are mostly related to the design phase, but I'm not entirely sure.

This looks like a tricky question on Exadata security features. I'll need to think through the different options carefully.

I feel pretty confident that the right answer here is option C - establishing KPIs. That's going to give you the most quantifiable and measurable way to assess the impact of the Sales Cloud implementation. The other options seem a bit more subjective or indirect.
