medium🧠 Conceptual Q5 of 15
Cybersecurity - Security Architecture and Design
If a software design includes strong authentication and encrypted data storage, what is the expected security result?
AData is vulnerable to unauthorized access
BAuthentication bypass is easier
CData confidentiality and integrity are improved
DSystem performance will always degrade
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand effects of strong authentication and encryption

    Strong authentication controls access; encryption protects data confidentiality and integrity.
  2. Step 2: Review incorrect options

    These measures reduce vulnerability and do not necessarily degrade performance always.
  3. Final Answer:

    Data confidentiality and integrity are improved -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Authentication + encryption = Better data security [OK]
Quick Trick: Encrypt data and verify users to secure info [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Thinking encryption weakens security
  • Assuming authentication is optional
  • Believing performance always suffers
