Practice question 43 of 498 · easy

A proposed access design trusts every request from the corporate LAN without checking identity or device context. Which Zero Trust principle most directly requires a change?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.Verify explicitly
  2. B.Use network allowlisting as the sole authentication proof
  3. C.Assume breach but omit access authentication
  4. D.Use least privilege while accepting unauthenticated internal requests
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Verify explicitly

Verify explicitly directly addresses the missing identity/context checks. Network-only trust is insufficient, limited permissions do not authenticate the caller, and assumption of compromise does not justify omitting authentication.
