Kayden successfully cracked the final round of interview at an organization. After few days, he received his offer letter through an official company email address. The email stated that the selected candidate should respond within a specified time. Kayden accepted the opportunity and provided e-signature on the offer letter, then replied to the same email address. The company validated the e-signature and added his details to their database. Here, Kayden could not deny company's message, and company could not deny Kayden's signature.
Which of the following information security elements was described in the above scenario?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is B.

Non-repudiation is the assurance that someone cannot deny the validity of something. In this scenario, Kayden cannot deny that he accepted and signed the offer letter, and the company cannot deny that they sent the offer and received his acceptance. This matches the core concept of non-repudiation, which prevents either party from refuting their involvement.

Question 3 of 125
Sam, a software engineer, visited an organization to give a demonstration on a software tool that helps in business development. The administrator at the organization created a least privileged account on a system and allocated that system to Sam for the demonstration. Using this account, Sam can only access the files that are required for the demonstration and cannot open any other file in the system.
Which of the following type of accounts the organization has given to Sam in the above scenario?
Answer

Suggested Answer

This matches the scenario where Sam can only access files required for the demonstration and nothing else.
