CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 516

Prior to implementing a design change, the change must go through multiple steps to ensure that it does not cause any security issues. Which of the following is most likely to be one of those steps?

Answer options

• A. Board review
• B. Service restart
• C. Backout planning
• D. Maintenance

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Backout planning is crucial as it prepares a strategy to revert changes if they lead to unexpected issues, including security vulnerabilities. The other options, like Board review and Maintenance, do not specifically address the need for a contingency plan in the event of a security problem arising from the change.
