Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals (CBROPS) — Question 250

Which type of access control depends on the job function of the user?

Answer options

• A. role-based access control
• B. rule-based access control
• C. nondiscretionary access control
• D. discretionary access control

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Role-based access control (RBAC) is designed to grant permissions based on the user's role within an organization, which correlates directly with their job function. In contrast, rule-based access control, nondiscretionary access control, and discretionary access control do not specifically tie permissions to job functions, making them unsuitable as answers.
