CompTIA Security+ Practice Test of the Day 260609

By /

Welcome to today’s CompTIA Security+ practice test!

This practice test uses our new UI!

Today’s practice test is based on Subdomain 3.1 (Compare and contrast security implications of different architecture models) from the CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 objectives.

This beginner-level practice test is inspired by the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam and is designed to help you reinforce key cybersecurity concepts on a daily basis.

These questions are not official exam questions, nor are they brain dumps, but they reflect topics and scenarios relevant to the Security+ certification. Use them to test your knowledge, identify areas for improvement, and build daily cybersecurity habits.

CompTIA Security+ Practice Test of the Day 260609
10 questions • Single best answer
Question 1
A cloud architect designs an application where code runs only in response to events, with the provider fully managing the underlying servers and scaling. The organization never provisions or maintains any host. Which architecture model is described?
    Question 2
    An organization refactors a monolithic application into many small, independently deployable services that communicate over APIs. Each component can be updated and scaled separately. Which architecture model does this represent?
      Question 3
      A DevOps team defines and provisions all network, server, and storage resources through version-controlled configuration files rather than manual setup. Environments can be rebuilt identically on demand. Which concept does this describe?
        Question 4
        A developer packages an application with its dependencies into lightweight, portable units that share the host OS kernel yet remain isolated. They start quickly and run consistently across environments. Which technology is described?
          Question 5
          A water treatment utility relies on specialized systems that monitor and control physical equipment such as pumps and valves across distributed sites. These systems prioritize availability and real-time control. Which type of environment is this?
            Question 6
            To protect highly sensitive systems, an organization physically isolates them with no network connection to other networks or the internet. Data moves only via controlled manual transfer. Which infrastructure approach is this?
              Question 7
              Before migrating to a public cloud, a team documents exactly which security duties belong to the provider versus the customer for each service tier. This clarifies accountability boundaries. Which cloud concept does this describe?
                Question 8
                An enterprise centralizes network control by separating the control plane from the data plane, managing traffic flows programmatically from a central controller. Switches simply forward packets per its instructions. Which approach is this?
                  Question 9
                  Evaluating a cloud migration, leadership notes that shifting infrastructure to a provider moves certain operational risks to that third party under contract. This is weighed as a benefit of the model. Which consideration does this reflect?
                    Question 10
                    A medical infusion pump runs a specialized operating system designed to process inputs and deliver outputs within strict, guaranteed time constraints. Predictable timing is critical to safe operation. Which system type is described?
