Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) — Question 96

Which of the following provides an easy way to programmers for writing lower-risk applications and retrofitting security into an existing application?

Answer options

• A. Watermarking
• B. Code obfuscation
• C. Encryption wrapper
• D. ESAPI

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, C. Encryption wrapper, allows developers to easily add security features to applications by wrapping sensitive data in encryption, thereby lowering risk. The other options, while related to security, do not specifically focus on the integration of security into existing applications as effectively as an encryption wrapper does.
