Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

A permissive policy is a type of Internet access policy that allows users to access the Internet from any device and any location, without any restrictions or security measures. A permissive policy provides convenience and flexibility for the users, but also exposes them to various risks, such as malware infection, data leakage, or cyberattacks. In the scenario, Sarah was accessing confidential office files from a remote location via her personal computer connected to the public Internet, and accidentally downloaded a malicious file onto her computer. This indicates that the organization had a permissive policy for Internet access12.

I think it could also be a prudent policy, as Sarah should have been more cautious about her Internet access.

But wouldn't a prudent policy be more appropriate in this case? It focuses on ensuring security measures are in place.

Haha, 'All of the Above'? That's a bold move! I like your style, but I think I'm gonna have to go with Prudent policy on this one. The free internet access and lack of network defenses just scream 'we tried to be responsible, but kinda messed it up'.

I think Permissive policy makes sense in this scenario. You should always be cautious with free internet access.

I'll go with Paranoid policy. Can't be too careful with confidential files.

Hmm, I'm leaning more towards the Promiscuous policy here. The scenario mentions that Sarah was accessing confidential files from her personal computer on the public internet, which sounds like a pretty lax approach to security.

Ooh, this is a tricky one! I'm getting flashbacks to our cybersecurity lecture where we covered access policies. Let's see, I'm thinking it's either a Permissive policy or a Promiscuous policy, but I'm not too sure.
