CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-001) — Question 253

Which of the following is a control that allows a mobile application to access and manipulate information which should only be available by another application on the same mobile device (e.g. a music application posting the name of the current song playing on the device on a social media site)?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Transitive trust is the correct answer as it allows one application to trust another, enabling access to shared resources. The other options do not pertain to the ability of apps to share information securely and correctly; Co-hosted application refers to hosting, Mutually exclusive access pertains to resource availability, and Dual authentication focuses on security verification rather than access control.
