What are two result of utilizing a fragmented security model? (Choose two.)

The correct answer is A. Individual components pieced together to meet requirements. E. Decreased visibility and limited understand of security coverage. A fragmented security model results from stitching together disconnected tools, which creates architectural gaps and prevents organizations from understanding their true security coverage.

Why each option

A fragmented security model results from stitching together disconnected tools, which creates architectural gaps and prevents organizations from understanding their true security coverage.

AIndividual components pieced together to meet requirements.Correct

Individual components pieced together directly defines what fragmentation is - using disparate, non-integrated tools from multiple vendors that were not designed to share telemetry or context, leaving gaps where threats can slip through between security layers.

BIncreased identity controls.

Increased identity controls is a benefit of a mature, integrated security architecture, not a result of fragmentation.

CReduced malicious file risk through additional segmentation.

Reduced malicious file risk through segmentation is a deliberate design goal achieved by intentional network segmentation strategies, not a byproduct of a fragmented model.

DDecreased network accessibility through multiple applications

Decreased network accessibility through multiple applications is not a recognized outcome of fragmentation and misrepresents how fragmented models behave.

EDecreased visibility and limited understand of security coverage.Correct

Decreased visibility and limited understanding of security coverage is an inherent consequence of fragmented tools because each solution operates in isolation without shared dashboards or correlated alerting, making it impossible for security teams to assess their overall posture.
