CISA Certified Information Systems Auditor – Question2043
Which of the following controls can BEST detect accidental corruption during transmission of data across a network? A. Sequence checking B. Parity checking C. Symmetric encryption D. Check digit verification
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation:
Parity check is used to detect transmission errors in the data. When a parity check is applied to a single character, it is called vertical or column check. In addition, if a parity check is applied to all the data it is called vertical or row check. By using both types of parity check simultaneously can greatly increase the error detection possibility, which may not be possible when only one type of parity check is used.
