解説
問 5
Incorrectア
“A specialized organization that monitors and analyzes threats to information systems” describes an SOC (Security Operation Center), which is unrelated to an NDA that denotes a contract. It refers to an organization (a structure), not an agreement on confidentiality.
- イ
正解 NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) is short for a confidentiality agreement. It is a contract in which, during transactions or joint development, the contracting parties identify the confidential information—such as trade secrets and technical information—that they disclose to each other, and promise not to leak that information to third parties and to manage it appropriately. Choice イ states “a contract in which the parties identify the trade secrets they hold and agree on their intent to manage the other party's confidential information,” which is exactly the definition of an NDA, so it is the correct answer.
Incorrectウ
“An arrangement of objective quality standards agreed upon by the service provider and the user” describes an SLA (Service Level Agreement). It is an agreement about service levels, which differs from an NDA whose purpose is to protect confidential information.
Incorrectエ
“Something that subdivides the work of a project and organizes it into a hierarchical structure” describes a WBS (Work Breakdown Structure). It is a work-management technique in project management and has nothing to do with a non-disclosure agreement.
ここがポイント
- NDA = Non-Disclosure Agreement: a contract that promises to manage the trade secrets and confidential information disclosed between the parties and not to leak them to third parties.
- Distinguish confusing acronyms: do not mix up NDA with SOC (a threat-monitoring organization), SLA (an agreement on service quality), or WBS (a work breakdown structure).
