Security+ Chapter 8

In terms of physical security, ___________ refers to protecting important assets by using several perimeters - layered access - multifactor access control - dual authentication - Intrusion detection system

A newer portable media that provides new obstacles is a(n) - Access token - USB drive - CD-ROM - CCTV

Multifactor authentication is all of these, EXCEPT: - What you are - What you have - What you know - What you calculate

Which of these, according to this chapter, is not a step that can be taken to help mitigate physical security risk? - All users need security training. - Electronic physical security systems need to be protected from network-based attacks. - Authentication systems should use multiple factors when feasible. - Constant monitoring of all employees by camera

Using a token and a password to authenticate is an example of - Single sign-on - Multifactor authentication - Tokenizing - Dual access control

When a biometric is scanned and allows access to someone who is not authorized that is called a - False negative - False positive - True negative - True positive

When the system denies access to someone who is authorized it is called a - False negative - False positive - True negative - True positive

The best fire extinguisher for petroleum products is a - Class A - Class B - Class C - Class D

The best fire extinguisher for an electrical fire is a - Class A - Class B - Class C - Class D

The best fire extinguisher for an wood, paper and cloth fires is a - Class A - Class B - Class C - Class D

Which of the following are examples of the concept of layered access in physical security? - Firewall, IDS, CCTV - Fences, gates, mantrap, doors - CCTV, walls, antivirus - RFID, biometrics, personal firewalls

The following are examples of clean-agent fire suppression systems EXCEPT: - Carbon dioxide - Argon - Halon - Inergen

One drawback to water-based fire suppression systems is that they - Can be toxic to humans - Can cause more damage to equipment - Are the most expensive type of suppression system - Are not useful against type A fires

Mantraps are a good countermeasure against - Dumpster diving - Shoulder surfing - Tailgating - Phishing

Physical security policies and procedures relate to which two distinct areas? - Internal and external - Equipment and data - Computers and users - Countermeasures and response

The "security problem" can be summarized in the following statement: - Physical access negates all other security - measures. - A stitch in time saves nine. - The more secure it is, the less functional it is. - No good deed goes unpunished.

An operating system designed to run the entire machine from an optical disc is referred to as a - Boot floppy - Live CD - Installation CD - Bootable thumbdrive

What kind of copy is a drive image? - Bit-by-bit copy - File-by-file copy - Partition copy - A copy of all images on the drive

All of the following are ways to prevent a computer from booting up from a bootable floppy EXCEPT: - Taking out the floppy drive. - Removing the a drive from the boot sequence. - Setting a bios password. - Making sure the floppy is not the first drive in the boot sequence.

An ionization fire detection device - Provides advanced warning for smoldering fires - Detects fast burning fires - Detects heat - Detects smoke

A false positive is when a biometric is scanned and allows access—when it was not the person who has authorization. True or False

Your weight is a biometric. True or False

Drive imaging is the term used for copying all the image files from one drive to another. True or False

Besides physically securing your computers, there is little you can do to prevent drive imaging. True or False

The primary defense against a majority of physical attacks are doors, walls, gates, and fences. True or False

A false negative is when an unauthorized person is denied access. True or False

An access token is an example of "something you know," in relation to authentication. True or False

Photoelectric detectors are good at detecting heat from a fire. True or False

The best type of fire extinguisher for putting out common, combustible fires is a class C. True or False

A mantrap is used to prevent piggybacking. True or False
