ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

Your organization is deploying hundreds of IoT temperature sensors on an outdoor perimeter fence to monitor critical equipment. Although the sensors will use TLS for data-in-transit encryption and 802.1X for network admission, they will remain physically reachable by the public. Management asks which additional safeguard will MOST effectively reduce the risk of attackers tampering with, removing, or replacing a sensor in the field. Which option should you recommend?

  • Place all sensors on a dedicated VLAN protected by restrictive access-control lists.

  • Install every sensor inside a hardened, weather-proof enclosure equipped with locks and tamper-evident seals.

  • Require 802.1X port authentication so a sensor cannot join the network without valid credentials.

  • Enforce mutual TLS with X.509 certificates for all sensor communications to the cloud endpoint.
