@Begai and @dcontesti
Thank you for reaching out via ISC2 Community with this question.
I see the screenshot is from the 5th edition of the SSCP Study Guide, which is not the most current. We are now in the 6th edition, which may have removed this type of question from its content. However, please submit a query via our form
and include your specific question(s) related to ISC2 certification courses.
@dcontesti is correct - our exam writers work very hard to remove ambiguity and what might be perceived as "trick" questions on ISC2 exams.
What I can tell you is this:
Items are written in such a way that a competent candidate can choose the correct response. Our examinations adhere to technical guidelines that deal with the content of the items, their relevance to the profession, their appropriateness, their timeliness, their reasonableness, and their relationship to the Common Body of Knowledge (CBK). They adhere to grammatical guidelines that deal with the style of the items, their structure, consistency, clarity, bias, and readability. These guidelines ensure that the examinations remain impartial, valid, and relevant to maintain our ANSI accreditation.
Please know - We cannot teach the actual exam; there is an ethical wall between Training and Exams.
Our exams test the way you can apply the knowledge, skills and abilities listed on the exam outline and taught in the course.
Hope this helps.
