ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

During a design review, you learn that a public-facing SaaS platform uses two stateless web servers behind a highly available load balancer, but stores all state in a single on-premises database server. From a resiliency standpoint, which change would most effectively remove the remaining single point of failure?

  • Enable TLS 1.3 for all client connections to the application servers.

  • Deploy a replicated database cluster with automatic failover between primary and secondary nodes.

  • Place a web application firewall in front of the load balancer to filter malicious traffic.

  • Schedule nightly full backups of the database to off-site storage.
