Sample Questions

Question 1

What is the core principle of Zero Trust?

A. Trust devices once they connect via VPN — internal traffic is then considered safe, in the most widely accepted patterns

B. Trust employees within the organization but restrict access for outside contractors, as outlined in standard reference materials

C. Trust internal traffic by default and apply strict controls to external traffic, in line with industry consensus on the topic

D. Never trust by default — verify every request regardless of where it originates from

✓ Correct Answer: D

Zero Trust assumes no implicit trust — every request is authenticated and authorized regardless of network location. A, C, and B describe traditional perimeter trust models.

Question 2

Which of the following is a Zero Trust principle?

A. Implicit trust granted to systems within the corporate network perimeter, in typical production scenarios

B. Trust based purely on user job title without further verification of context, under common configurations

C. Continuous verification — re-authenticate and re-authorize requests as context changes

D. Single sign-on grants permanent access until the user logs out manually, as described in standard reference material

✓ Correct Answer: C

Continuous verification re-evaluates trust based on changing context (device posture, location, time, risk score). A, B, and D are perimeter-trust assumptions.
