Consider the following statements regarding a zero-trust security architecture:

1. 1.It assumes that network location alone is not sufficient evidence of trust.
2. 2.Authentication and authorization can be continuously evaluated based on identity, device, context and risk.
3. 3.Once a user enters an internal network, the user is permanently trusted.

Consider the following statements:

1. 1.Edge computing can reduce latency by processing data near the source.
2. 2.It can reduce the volume of raw data sent to a central cloud.
3. 3.Edge computing requires that no cloud infrastructure be used anywhere in the architecture.

Consider the following statements regarding lawful dark-web monitoring for cybercrime intelligence:

1. 1.It can help identify stolen credentials, illicit marketplaces or emerging threat indicators.

Consider the following pairs:

1. 1.Surface-to-air missile — interception of aerial targets from a surface-launched platform
2. 2.Ballistic missile — flight involving a powered phase followed by a substantial ballistic trajectory
3. 3.Cruise missile — generally sustained powered flight through much of its trajectory
4. 4.Air-to-air missile — normally launched from a surface vehicle to engage aircraft
