Cybersecurity Interview Questions. WorkLifeCyber

#cybersecurity #workingmom #womenintech #interviewtips
Interviewing can be daunting. Since it’s highly based on the interviewer’s knowledge, experience and mood that day, it is best to not stress. Prepare enough and hope for the best. Good luck.
This video should only serve as a part of the many ways you are preparing for an interview.
I HOPE THIS HELPS!
The CIA triad is a foundational concept in cybersecurity that stands for Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. Confidentiality means that information is only accessible to authorized parties. Integrity refers to the assurance that data has not been tampered with or altered in any way. Availability ensures that information is accessible when needed and is not subject to unauthorized denial of service.
A virus is a malicious program that attaches itself to a legitimate program or file and replicates itself. A worm is a self-replicating program that spreads through a network without user intervention. A Trojan horse is a program that appears legitimate but actually contains a hidden malicious function.
To stay current with the latest threats and trends in cybersecurity, I regularly read industry publications and attend conferences and webinars. I also participate in online communities and discussion forums with other cybersecurity professionals to exchange ideas and best practices.
If investigating a security breach, I would first contain the incident to prevent further damage or loss of data. Then, I would gather evidence, conduct a root cause analysis, and work to remediate the issue. Finally, I would perform a post-incident review to identify lessons learned and improve our incident response process for the future.
To ensure the security of data in transit, I would use encryption protocols such as TLS or VPNs to protect data as it moves across networks. For data at rest, I would use strong access controls, such as password policies and multi-factor authentication, as well as encryption to protect the data.
When approaching risk management in cybersecurity, I first identify and assess the potential threats and vulnerabilities to our organization's systems and data. Then, I prioritize risks based on their likelihood and potential impact and work to mitigate or transfer them as necessary.
I have experience with network security and firewalls, including configuring and monitoring firewalls to prevent unauthorized access and implementing network segmentation to limit the spread of malware or attacks across our network.
Yes, I have experience with cybersecurity frameworks such as NIST, ISO, and CIS Controls. I have used these frameworks to guide our organization's security policies, procedures, and best practices.
Encryption is the process of transforming data into a code to prevent unauthorized access or interception. It can be used to secure data at rest or in transit by encoding the data so that only authorized parties with the key can access it.
In a previous role, I had to respond to a security incident where a user's account had been compromised, and sensitive data was accessed. I quickly revoked the user's access, assessed the extent of the breach, and worked with our incident response team to identify and remediate the issue. We then implemented additional security controls, such as multi-factor authentication, to prevent future incidents.
