ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

A security team manages several hundred Windows 10 laptops used by developers who frequently update in-house tools. The devices are joined to AWS Managed Microsoft AD and receive Group Policy from domain controllers in Amazon EC2. Today the team enforces application allow-listing with AppLocker using file-hash rules. After every internal software build, many hashes change and legitimate executables are blocked until new rules are manually distributed, creating unacceptable administrative overhead. The team must keep a default-deny posture but allow only the organization's legitimately signed applications to run, even after future updates, while minimizing ongoing maintenance. Which AppLocker rule condition should the team adopt to meet these requirements?

  • Switch to path rules that permit execution of any file stored in %ProgramFiles% and %SystemRoot% directories.

  • Keep hash rules but enable automatic hash generation for every new build during software deployment.

  • Implement network zone rules that allow applications originating from the corporate intranet zone only.

  • Replace the hash rules with publisher rules that allow any executable signed by the organization's code-signing certificate.
