CISSP study material · question 146 of 500

A control is implemented centrally by a hosting platform, but each tenant system adds its own configuration on top of the inherited part. In the vocabulary of the Risk Management Framework, how is such a control described?

  1. Compensating.
  2. Hybrid.
  3. System-specific.
  4. Common.
Show the answer

Answer: B. Hybrid.

The framework splits controls into system-specific, common and hybrid. A control partly inherited and partly implemented by the system itself is hybrid.
