Sample Questions

What best describes Confidentiality concerns in CompTIA ITF+ security terminology?
  • A. The concept of Confidentiality concerns refers to risks that expose information to people or systems that are not authorized to see it; operationally, the task is to focus on preventing unauthorized viewing or disclosure.
  • B. Eavesdropping refers to secretly listening to communications, such as network traffic, calls, or conversations, to gather information. The required response is to focus on preventing unauthorized viewing or disclosure, not to protect communications from being listened to.
  • C. Dumpster diving refers to searching trash or discarded materials for sensitive information such as passwords, invoices, notes, or customer data. The required response is to focus on preventing unauthorized viewing or disclosure, not to shred, destroy, or securely dispose of sensitive material.

What best describes Snooping in CompTIA ITF+ security terminology?
  • A. The concept of Snooping refers to casual or unauthorized looking through data, screens, files, or network information without permission; operationally, the task is to prevent unauthorized viewing.
  • B. Hardware failure refers to a physical component failure, such as a disk, power supply, NIC, or motherboard problem, that disrupts operation. The required response is to prevent unauthorized viewing, not to use redundancy, monitoring, and replacement processes.
  • C. Unauthorized information alteration refers to changing records, files, transactions, or messages without approval, reducing trust in the data. The required response is to prevent unauthorized viewing, not to control and audit data changes.
  • D. Integrity concerns refers to risks that allow data to be changed, corrupted, inserted, or replaced without authorization. The required response is to prevent unauthorized viewing, not to focus on preventing unauthorized modification.
