ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

During a post-release penetration test, your team confirms that a customer-facing API endpoint is vulnerable to SQL injection. The developers immediately refactor the data-access layer to use parameterized queries, add input-validation unit tests, and push a hotfix into production. From a risk-treatment perspective, which approach have they taken?

  • Mitigate the risk by adding a compensating web application firewall rule

  • Transfer the risk by obtaining cyber-liability insurance coverage

  • Accept the risk because the affected functionality is rarely used

  • Remediate the vulnerability by correcting the code and redeploying the application
