Question 1 of 30
In a corporate environment, a security architect is tasked with designing a security architecture that adheres to the principles of least privilege and defense in depth. The architect must ensure that access controls are implemented effectively across various layers of the network, including the application, network, and physical layers. Given a scenario where an employee requires access to sensitive financial data, which approach should the architect prioritize to ensure compliance with security architecture principles while minimizing risk?
Implement role-based access control (RBAC) that grants the employee access only to the specific financial data necessary for their job function, while also employing multi-factor authentication (MFA) for an additional layer of security.
Provide the employee with full access to the financial database to facilitate their work, assuming they will only use the data for legitimate purposes.
Allow the employee to access the financial data without any additional security measures, as they are a trusted employee.
Use a single sign-on (SSO) solution that allows the employee to access all company resources, including financial data, without restrictions.
