CCSP Exam - Question 247


Which of the following threat types can occur when baselines are not appropriately applied or when unauthorized changes are made?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

When baselines are not appropriately applied or when unauthorized changes are made, this can lead to security misconfigurations. Security misconfigurations happen when systems or applications are not properly configured or maintained securely. These misconfigurations can create vulnerabilities in the system, leading to potential threats. Examples include failing to apply security patches, incorrect permissions, or default settings that are insecure.
