I agree, A helps catch issues before they escalate.

Jennie 11 months ago

Wait, classifying a risk as acceptable? That sounds risky to me!

Emily 11 months ago

Shutting down traffic after a hack? That's reactive, not preventive!

Joaquin 11 months ago

I think C is more preventive than A.

Ilene 11 months ago

A is definitely a preventive measure!

Myra 12 months ago

I’m confused about D; classifying a risk as acceptable doesn’t seem preventive at all. I think it’s more about risk management than prevention.

Brice 12 months ago

I’m leaning towards A too, but I wonder if shutting down internet traffic (B) could be seen as preventive in some way? It feels reactive though.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think putting sensitive info in a safe (C) could be preventive, but it feels more like a protective measure.

I think preventive measures are about stopping issues before they happen, so maybe A is the right choice? But I'm not entirely sure.

Hmm, not sure about this one. Gotta think through the differences between the measures. Maybe I'll eliminate the obvious non-preventive ones first, then decide between the remaining options.

I've got this! A preventive measure is all about stopping the problem before it starts. Installing a logging system to detect changes seems like the clear preventive option here. Time to mark that one down.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Preventive versus other types of measures - I'll have to review my notes to refresh my memory. Gotta be careful not to overthink it.

Okay, let's see. A preventive measure is something that stops a threat from happening in the first place, right? I'm leaning towards option A, but I'll double-check the definitions just to be sure.

Lauryn 1 year ago

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the difference between preventive and other types of security measures.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to identify the 9 principles from the list provided. I'll double-check my answer before submitting.

This question seems to be focused on designing the test automation architecture (TAA) for a state-based, event-driven system with unreliable hardware and communication links. I think the most important aspect would be to look for tools that can handle exceptions and actions based on the SUT events, so I'd go with option A.

Annual evaluations sound familiar, but I'm pretty sure concerns should be addressed sooner than that! We canâ€™t just wait a whole year, can we?

Bette 2 years ago

I disagree, shutting down all internet traffic after a hacker has gained access seems more like a reactive measure.

Lynelle 2 years ago

I believe option C, putting sensitive information in a safe, is also a preventive measure.

Jospeh 2 years ago

I agree, installing a logging system can help identify any changes made to the system.

Luke 2 years ago

I think the preventive measure is option A.
