CAS-005 Exam Dumps : CompTIA SecurityX Certification Exam

To prevent sensitive corporate information from being exposed if a laptop is stolen, the solution must ensure that data is not stored locally and access is tightly controlled. According to the CompTIA SecurityX CAS-005 study guide (Domain 4: Governance, Risk, and Compliance, 4.3), Desktop as a Service (DaaS) hosts data and applications in the cloud, reducing the risk of data exposure on physical devices. Combining DaaS with multifactor authentication (MFA) ensures that even if a laptop is stolen, unauthorized access to the cloud environment is prevented.

Option B:IP allow lists and SSO do not address data stored locally on the laptop, which could be accessed offline.

Option C:MDM and stronger passwords help but do not prevent data exposure if the device is compromised (e.g., via offline attacks).

Option D:Updating policies and monitoring breaches are reactive measures that do not directly protect data on a stolen laptop.

Option A:DaaS ensures no sensitive data resides on the device, and MFA secures access, making it the best solution.

To secure the Operational Technology (OT) environment based on the given requirements, the best approach is to implement a bastion host inthe OT network. The bastion host serves as a secure entry point for remote access, allowing third-party vendors to connect while being monitored by security tools. Using a dedicated update server for workstations ensures that security updates are applied in a controlled manner without direct internet access.

ChaCha20-Poly1305is a cipher suite specifically designed for efficiency on systems with limited hardware resources. It offers high security with lower memory and CPU consumption compared to AES on certain platforms, especially mobile devices. TLS 1.3 supports ChaCha20-Poly1305 natively. CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) modes like IDEA-CBC and Camellia-CBC are less efficient and not recommended under TLS 1.3, and AES-GCM, while secure, can be less efficient than ChaCha20 on devices without AES hardware acceleration.
