CYBERSECURITY-PRACTITIONER practice question 14 of 30
SecOps consists of interfaces, visibility, technology, and which other three elements? (Choose three.)
Full set: 225 questionsSecOps is a framework that integrates security and operations to improve an organization's security posture. It is fundamentally built upon the classic triad of People, Processes, and Technology. The question already provides "Technology" and related aspects ("interfaces," "visibility"). The remaining core pillars are the skilled People who manage the systems, the well-defined Processes they follow for incident response and daily operations, and the alignment of these efforts with the overarching Business objectives. This ensures that security is not an isolated technical function but a core component that enables and protects the organization's mission.
B. Accessibility: This is a desirable feature of tools and systems used within SecOps, but it is not a foundational structural element of the framework itself.
D. Understanding: This is a goal or an outcome of a successful SecOps implementation (e.g., understanding threats), not a core component like people or processes.

Cybersecurity Foundation (EDU-110)
Module 1: The Cybersecurity Landscape. The courseware establishes that a successful cybersecurity strategy requires a holistic approach that balances three key elements: people
processes
and technology. This triad is presented as the foundation for any effective security program
including SecOps.

"What Is SecOps (Security Operations)?"
Official Website. The documentation defines SecOps as a "collaborative effort between security and IT operations teams" and emphasizes that its success relies on the integration of "people
processes
and technology to deliver a more efficient and effective response to threats." This directly supports the inclusion of People and Processes.
