PrepAway - Latest Free Exam Questions & Answers

A.
least privilege

B.
Sand box

C.
CIA

D.
OSI

Explanation:
When a Java applet is executed, the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) will create a virtual machine, which provides
an environment called a sandbox. This virtual machine is an enclosed environment in which the applet carries
out its activities.
Incorrect Answers:
A: The principle of least privilege (POLP) is the practice of limiting access to the minimal level that will allow
normal functioning. Java uses the sandbox model, not the POLP model.
C: A simple but widely-applicable security model is the CIA triad; standing for Confidentiality, Integrity and
Availability; three key principles which should be guaranteed in any kind of secure system. Java does not use
the CIA security model.
D: OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) is reference model for how applications can communicate over a
network. OSI is not related to Java.
