ISC2 CISSP Practice Question

During an audit, a multinational bank discovers that sensitive customer account information exchanged between its web application and back-end services is only protected by basic network firewalls. To reduce the risk of eavesdropping or tampering while the data is moving across public networks, which control should the security architect implement FIRST to provide both confidentiality and integrity for the data in transit?

  • Deploy a network-based intrusion prevention system to detect malicious packets.

  • Establish a TLS 1.3 encrypted channel for all customer transactions.

  • Implement strict role-based access control on the back-end database.

  • Configure secure hashing (SHA-256) of files before transmission.
