ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

Your security team runs an AWS CloudHSM cluster that protects the private root-CA key used by an internal public key infrastructure (PKI). A new regulatory control now mandates split knowledge for any future key recovery or export operation, while allowing the existing automated online signing process to continue unaffected. Which change to the CloudHSM configuration BEST meets this requirement?

  • Modify the signing application to prompt for two separate Crypto User credentials before every signing transaction.

  • Rotate the cluster's security group keys and enable automatic HSM node scaling across Availability Zones.

  • Export the private key to a software keystore protected by a server-based TPM and disable key export on the HSM thereafter.

  • Enable M-of-N authorization for the Crypto Officer role so that a quorum of operators must authenticate before any key export or recovery command is accepted.
