CAS-005 Exam Dumps : CompTIA SecurityX Certification Exam

The key requirement is toinstantly eliminate data losson a lost device.

Cryptographic erasureworks by deleting encryption keys used for FDE (full disk encryption), rendering all data unrecoverable within seconds — satisfying the " mitigate within seconds " requirement.

Revoking certificates won’t wipe the data from a lost tablet.

Changing MFA credentials won’t help unless the device is secured, and app allow lists don’t apply post-loss.

FromCAS-005, Domain 3: Secure Systems Design and Deployment:

“Cryptographic erase (CE) renders data irrecoverable by deleting encryption keys used to protect data on the device.”

A. Implementing allow lists: Allow lists (whitelisting) restrict network communication to only authorized devices and applications, significantly reducing the attack surface by ensuring that only pre-approved traffic is permitted.

F. Implementing a site-to-site IPSec VPN: A site-to-site VPN provides a secure, encrypted tunnel for data transmission between the OT systems and the vendor, protecting the data from interception and tampering during transit.

Other options:

B. Monitoring network behavior: While useful for detecting anomalies, it does not proactively reduce the risk of compromise or sabotage.

C. Encrypting data at rest: Important for protecting data stored on devices, but does not address network communication risks.

D. Performing boot integrity checks: Ensures the integrity of the system at startup but does not protect ongoing network communications.

E. Executing daily health checks: Useful for maintaining system health but does not directly reduce the risk of network-based compromise or sabotage.
