ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

Your organization is automating its AWS deployment pipeline. Current plans give DevOps engineers permission to both merge application code into the main branch and promote the resulting build directly to the production environment. The security team is concerned this design could allow a single individual to introduce malicious code without detection. Which security concept should be applied to mitigate this risk by dividing these responsibilities among different roles?

  • Apply strict least-privilege permissions so each engineer can only access what is needed for daily tasks.

  • Introduce job rotation to move engineers between development and operations roles every few months.

  • Implement segregation of duties so different personnel handle code commits and production deployments.

  • Add additional defense-in-depth controls such as Web Application Firewalls and intrusion detection systems.
