Fundamentals of InfoSecintermediate
Arrange the stages of a controlled security assessment in the correct chronological order from first to last.
Answer
Obtain explicit written authorization and define the assessment scope, Execute tests strictly within the approved, isolated target environment, Analyze observed findings to evaluate the overall security impact
Explanation
### The order
1. **Confirm explicit authorization and define the permitted scope**: testing must be permitted before it begins.
2. **Perform the test within the approved isolated environment**: this limits activity to the authorized setting.
3. **Use the observed results to assess the security impact**: results can then be related to confidentiality, integrity, or availability.
### Remember
Permission and scope come before testing.
