CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 Flashcards: Complete Objective Review
Study every current SY0-701 exam domain with original, concise flashcards for security concepts, threats, architecture, operations, and governance.
Tentang dek ini
Build reliable recall across all five current Security+ SY0-701 domains with 744 original, open-response cards. The deck follows the newest official objectives for the current exam series: Version 6.0, accessed on August 25, 2026.
What this deck covers
- General security concepts: control functions, core principles, zero trust, change management, cryptography, certificates, and PKI.
- Threats, vulnerabilities, and mitigations: threat actors, attack vectors, social engineering, platform and application weaknesses, malicious activity, indicators, and defensive choices.
- Security architecture: cloud and virtualization models, secure infrastructure, data protection, availability, backups, and recovery design.
- Security operations: hardening, asset and vulnerability management, monitoring, security tooling, identity and access, automation, incident response, and evidence sources.
- Program management and oversight: governance, risk, third-party security, compliance, privacy, audits, and awareness.
Prompts include concept-to-purpose recall, scenario-to-control or threat identification, and operational comparisons. Reverse prompts appear only when choosing a control, evidence source, or response is useful in practice. Prerequisites come before dependent ideas, while related variants are spaced apart.
The deck excludes multiple-choice practice, copied exam material, dumps, raw objective wording, vague term-only prompts, vendor trivia, and mechanically reversed duplicates. Use it after a course or primary study guide, then add hands-on labs and legitimate practice questions to test application.
Scope was reconciled against CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 Certification Exam: Exam Objectives Version 6.0. Current certification requirements and exam-series status are on the official CompTIA Security+ page.
This is an unofficial educational deck by Flashcards Open Source App. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or produced by CompTIA. All card wording and cover artwork are original; no exam questions, answer dumps, objective prose, logos, or trade dress were copied.

Jawaban
It sends crafted input that an interpreter treats as code or commands instead of data.
Kartu 727
Pertanyaan
What does a host-based firewall control?
Jawaban
Inbound and outbound network traffic for one endpoint according to local rules.
Kartu 728
Pertanyaan
Why revise alerting after an incident?
Jawaban
The incident can reveal missing telemetry, logic, thresholds, or response paths that should produce a better future alert.
Kartu 729
Pertanyaan
Why include security duties in procurement criteria?
Jawaban
Security is easier to require before selection than to retrofit after dependency and data transfer begin.
Kartu 730
Pertanyaan
What does a critical data classification indicate?
Jawaban
The information is essential to vital operations, safety, or mission outcomes and needs the strongest availability and recovery controls.
Kartu 731
Pertanyaan
What infrastructure capacity must support failover?
Jawaban
The alternate site, network, power, cooling, and facility resources needed to carry the transferred load.
Kartu 732
Pertanyaan
Why does shared cloud context matter when evaluating a cloud-specific vulnerability?
Jawaban
The affected service model and responsibility boundary determine who can observe, patch, configure, or compensate for the weakness.
Kartu 733
Pertanyaan
How does a remediation exemption differ from an exception?
Jawaban
Terminology follows the governing policy. A common convention is that an exemption removes a requirement for an approved scope, while an exception permits a time-bounded deviation.
Kartu 734
Pertanyaan
Why should automated EDR or XDR blocking have an exception and rollback path?
Jawaban
A false positive can isolate a critical endpoint or stop a legitimate process, so operators need controlled recovery without disabling protection broadly.
Kartu 735
Pertanyaan
What does a security playbook provide?
Jawaban
A repeatable set of roles, decisions, and actions for handling a defined operational scenario.
Kartu 736
Pertanyaan
How does an ultrasonic security sensor detect movement?
Jawaban
It emits high-frequency sound and detects changes in the returning sound pattern caused by motion.
Kartu 737
Pertanyaan
What should a managed mobile device require for Bluetooth connections?
Jawaban
Intentional pairing, non-discoverable operation when unused, trusted peers, current software, and only necessary Bluetooth profiles.
Kartu 738
Pertanyaan
How do password complexity rules differ from password length?
Jawaban
Complexity rules require selected character types; length measures total characters. Current policy should prioritize sufficient length and block weak or compromised choices instead of relying on composition alone.
Kartu 739
Pertanyaan
What makes a certificate third-party trusted?
Jawaban
A certificate authority outside the subject organization signs it and chains it to a root trusted by relying systems.
Kartu 740
Pertanyaan
Why is an out-of-band check effective against impersonation?
Jawaban
It verifies the request through a separate, previously trusted communication path.
Kartu 741
Pertanyaan
What does a risk exception authorize?
Jawaban
A documented deviation from a requirement for a defined scope, rationale, controls, owner, review, and expiration.
Kartu 742
Pertanyaan
What security challenge grows in a decentralized design?
Jawaban
Consistent policy, inventory, monitoring, and patching become harder.
Kartu 743
Pertanyaan
How should controls be selected for an unused network path?
Jawaban
Choose controls that block it by default, expose only approved connectivity, and make exceptions explicit and reviewable.
Kartu 744
Pertanyaan
How can a buffer-overflow attack affect an application?
Jawaban
It writes past a buffer boundary to corrupt memory, which can crash the application or redirect execution.
