The level of classification on the system
- B.
Emissions security assessments
- C.
Technical surveillance team investigations
- D.
The dimensions of the building housing the equipment
Correct Answer
B. Emissions security assessmentsExplanation
Emissions security assessments determine the need to implement Emissions Security countermeasures on a system that processes classified information. These assessments evaluate the potential for electromagnetic emissions from the system and assess the risks associated with these emissions. Based on the findings of these assessments, countermeasures can be implemented to mitigate any potential vulnerabilities and ensure the security of the classified information. The level of classification on the system, technical surveillance team investigations, and the dimensions of the building housing the equipment may also be factors to consider, but the primary determinant is the emissions security assessments.Rate this question:

Which word-processing feature causes data to be temporarily stored on the hard disk causing a security concern to classified data processing?
- A.
Backup files
- B.
Personal dictionary
- C.
Cut-and-paste buffer
- D.
Buffer overflow files
Correct Answer
C. Cut-and-paste bufferExplanation
The cut-and-paste buffer is a word-processing feature that temporarily stores data on the hard disk. This can pose a security concern for classified data processing because if the data is not properly deleted or overwritten, it can potentially be accessed by unauthorized individuals. This is especially true if the hard disk is not properly secured or if the data is not encrypted. Therefore, the cut-and-paste buffer feature should be used with caution when dealing with classified data to ensure the security and confidentiality of the information.Rate this question:

- A.
Unclassified
- B.
Confidential
- C.
Secret
- D.
Top Secret
Correct Answer
C. SecretExplanation
The highest level of classification of frequency records kept in the Department of Defense central database is "Secret." This level of classification indicates that the information is sensitive and should only be accessed by individuals with the appropriate security clearance. It is a higher level of classification than "Unclassified" and "Confidential," but lower than "Top Secret."Rate this question:

If your frequency database contains all Department of defense frequency records, at what level, if any, would the database be classified?
- A.
Unclassified
- B.
For Official Use Only
- C.
Confidential
- D.
Secret
Correct Answer
C. ConfidentialExplanation
The correct answer is "Confidential" because the question states that the frequency database contains all Department of Defense frequency records. Since the Department of Defense deals with sensitive and classified information, it is reasonable to assume that the frequency database would also be classified at a similar level to ensure the protection of national security.Rate this question:

What should be the classification of the retrieved data if you create an aggregate list of US Army unclassified assignments by producing a query using SFAF item 200 equals "USA" and SFAF item 300 equals "ANDREWS?"
- A.
Unclassified, because the frequency assignments are unclassified.
- B.
Unclassified, because you are not selecting the entire US Army database.
- C.
Conrfidential, because the aggregate list is Confidential
- D.
Confidential, because you are searching from the entire US Army database.
Correct Answer
B. Unclassified, because you are not selecting the entire US Army database.Explanation
The correct answer is "Unclassified, because you are not selecting the entire US Army database." This is because the query is specifically filtering the data based on two criteria - SFAF item 200 equals "USA" and SFAF item 300 equals "ANDREWS." Since the query is only retrieving data that meets these specific criteria, it does not encompass the entire US Army database, and therefore the classification of the retrieved data would be unclassified.Rate this question:

In the prevention and detection of unauthorized users to our computer systems, what should be used as a last line of defense?
- A.
Government-owned software
- B.
Authentication procedures
- C.
Access controls
- D.
Security checks
Correct Answer
C. Access controlsExplanation
Access controls should be used as a last line of defense in the prevention and detection of unauthorized users to computer systems. Access controls refer to mechanisms that restrict and regulate access to resources, data, and functionalities within a computer system. By implementing access controls, organizations can enforce authentication and authorization procedures, limit user privileges, and monitor and audit user activities. This helps in preventing unauthorized access and ensuring the security and integrity of computer systems. Government-owned software, authentication procedures, and security checks are important components of overall security measures, but access controls serve as the final layer of defense against unauthorized users.Rate this question:

Which of the following is not considered a violation of physical security?
- A.
Open and ungaurded safes
- B.
Improper password protection
- C.
Unattended classified documents
- D.
Misplaced or misfiled documents
Correct Answer
B. Improper password protectionExplanation
Improper password protection is not considered a violation of physical security because it pertains to the security of digital systems and not physical assets. Physical security focuses on protecting physical objects, facilities, and information from unauthorized access, theft, or damage. While improper password protection may pose a security risk to digital systems, it does not directly involve physical security measures such as guarding safes, protecting classified documents, or properly handling physical documents.Rate this question:
