ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

A development team is classifying a relational database table that stores customer names, postal addresses, and payment-card details. Which statement most accurately reflects how structured data classification should guide the choice of protection mechanisms for this table?

  • Row-level permissions are unnecessary once full-disk encryption is enabled, so the entire table can share a single classification label.

  • Because the schema is fixed, classification tags can be applied down to the column level, enabling field-level encryption and granular access control for highly sensitive values.

  • Structured data stored in tables is inherently less risky than unstructured files, so it is usually classified as public by default.

  • Classification labels for structured data must be stored only in a separate unstructured metadata repository and cannot reside inside the database catalog.

Random Mixed
Questions are selected randomly from all chosen topics, with a preference for those you haven’t seen before. You may see several questions from the same objective or domain in a row.
Rotate by Objective
Questions cycle through each objective or domain in turn, helping you avoid long streaks of questions from the same area. You may see some repeat questions, but the distribution will be more balanced across topics.

Check or uncheck an objective to set which questions you will receive.
