ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

During threat modeling of a healthcare mobile app, the team worries that an attacker who steals an end-user's phone could read locally cached patient records. Which design choice best enforces confidentiality of those records if the device falls into unauthorized hands?

  • Encrypt the local database with AES-256 and protect the key in the mobile OS keystore.

  • Calculate a SHA-256 hash of each record and store it alongside the data.

  • Replicate the database to a standby server in another region every hour.

  • Require administrators to use multi-factor authentication when logging into the back-end portal.
