What Orange Book security rating is reserved for systems that have been evaluated but fail to meet the criteria and requirements of the higher divisions?

A. A
B. D
C. E
D. F

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

D or “minimal protection” is reserved for systems that were evaluated under the TCSEC but did not meet the requirements for a higher trust level.
A is incorrect. A or “Verified Protectection” is the highest trust level under the TCSEC. E is incorrect. The trust levels are A -D so “E” is not a valid trust level. F is incorrect. The trust levels are A -D so “F” is not a valid trust level.
