ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

A security administrator is configuring an application-whitelisting policy for a fleet of corporate Windows 10 laptops. Only the organization's finance application, which is digitally signed by its vendor, must be allowed to run, and future upgrades should not require the administrator to create a new rule every time the vendor releases an updated executable. Which whitelist rule type will BEST meet this requirement while minimizing ongoing maintenance?

  • Create a file hash rule that explicitly permits the current version of the application's executable.

  • Create a file path rule that allows any executable located in the application's installation folder.

  • Create a rule that allows any executable whose file size matches that of the approved application binary.

  • Create a publisher (digital signature) rule that trusts any executable signed by the application vendor's code-signing certificate.
