Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) — Question 59

Which of the following is designed to detect unwanted attempts at accessing, manipulating, and disabling of computer systems through the Internet?

Answer options

• A. DAS
• B. IPsec
• C. IDS
• D. ACL

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, ACL (Access Control List), is used to define permissions and restrict access to resources, helping to prevent unauthorized access. IDS (Intrusion Detection System) detects malicious activities but does not control access, while DAS (Direct Attached Storage) and IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) serve different purposes unrelated to access control.
