This quiz is part of SearchSecurity's CISSP Essentials Security School lesson on the Security Architecture and Design domain within the Common Body of Knowledge, or CBK.

Created by expert trainer Shon Harris, CEO and founder of Logical Security, to help students prepare for the Certified Information Security Systems Professional certification exam, this quiz offers free questions similar to those that will be seen on test day.

This quiz will help you assess your knowledge of critical components within the Security Architecture and Design domain, including formal architectures, system architectures, security models and system evaluation.
