CompTIA Security+ Practice Test of the Day 260710

By /

Welcome to today’s CompTIA Security+ practice test!

This practice test uses our new UI!

Today’s practice test is based on Subdomain 3.4 (Explain the importance of resilience and recovery in security architecture) 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 260710
10 questions • Single best answer
Question 1
A data center infrastructure architect at a manufacturing firm needs a recovery facility that runs continuously with fully replicated live data. It must assume production within minutes of a disaster. Which recovery location fits this requirement?
    Question 2
    A cloud reliability engineer must distribute incoming web traffic evenly across several identical servers so no single node becomes overwhelmed during peak demand. Uptime is the priority. Which technique accomplishes this?
      Question 3
      A risk manager at a startup wants the least expensive alternate facility for disaster recovery. It provides only space, power, and cooling, with no preinstalled hardware or data, accepting a long restoration time. Which option is this?
        Question 4
        An incident response lead schedules a low-cost exercise where staff gather in a room and verbally walk through their roles during a simulated breach. No production systems are touched. What is this activity called?
          Question 5
          A database administrator wants a recovery method that continuously logs every transaction so the system can be restored to a consistent state after a crash. Point-in-time integrity is essential. Which technique provides this?
            Question 6
            A facilities security engineer needs equipment that keeps servers powered during brief outages. It must provide battery time to shut down safely or bridge until a generator starts. Which device meets this need?
              Question 7
              A continuity planner wants backup sites located hundreds of miles apart so a single regional hurricane cannot destroy both simultaneously. Regional independence is the goal. Which strategy is described?
                Question 8
                A virtualization administrator captures a point-in-time image of a virtual machine before applying a risky patch. The image allows a fast rollback if the update fails. Which capability is being used?
                  Question 9
                  A security program manager is estimating the people, technology, and infrastructure the organization will need to meet projected growth without service degradation. Future demand drives the analysis. Which practice is this?
                    Question 10
                    A resilience testing team deliberately shifts live production workloads from the primary system to the standby system to confirm redundancy works as designed. Real users remain served throughout. Which test is being performed?
