CMC Technology & Digital Tools

Question 1

What is the principle of least privilege in CMC technology management?

Accepted Answer

Users should only have the minimum access rights necessary for their job functions

Answer

The principle of least privilege limits each user's access to only what is strictly necessary for their role, reducing potential damage from errors, insider threats, or compromised accounts.

Question 2

What is the purpose of backup and disaster recovery in CMC technology?

Accepted Answer

To ensure data can be restored and operations resumed after a system failure or disaster

Answer

Backup and disaster recovery plans ensure that critical data and systems can be restored and operations resumed within acceptable timeframes after hardware failures, cyberattacks, natural disasters, or human error.

Question 3

What is multi-factor authentication (MFA) in CMC security?

Accepted Answer

A security method requiring two or more verification factors to gain access

Answer

MFA requires users to provide two or more distinct verification factors (something they know, something they have, something they are) before gaining access, significantly reducing unauthorized access risk.

Question 4

What is change management in CMC technology operations?

Accepted Answer

A structured process for evaluating, approving, and implementing changes to minimize risk

Answer

IT change management ensures that all changes to systems and infrastructure are evaluated for risk, properly approved, tested, documented, and implemented in a controlled manner to minimize service disruption.

Question 5

What is service level agreement (SLA) in CMC technology?

Accepted Answer

A formal agreement defining expected service performance standards between provider and client

Answer

An SLA defines specific, measurable performance standards (uptime, response time, resolution time) that a service provider commits to deliver, with consequences for failing to meet these standards.
