Which two (2) instances could cause Symantec Endpoint Protection to be unable to remediate a file? (Select two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B, C

Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) may be unable to remediate a file in certain situations. Two primary reasons for this failure are:

The detected file is in use (Option B): When a file is actively being used by the system or an application, SEP cannot remediate or delete it until it is no longer in use. Active files are locked by the operating system, preventing modification.

Insufficient file permissions (Option C): SEP needs adequate permissions to access and modify files. If SEP does not have the necessary permissions for the detected file, it cannot perform remediation.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

Another scan in progress (Option A) does not directly prevent remediation.

File marked for deletion on restart (Option D) would typically allow SEP to complete the deletion upon reboot.

File with good reputation (Option E) is less likely to be flagged for remediation but would not prevent it if flagged.

What about D? If it's marked for deletion, it might not be remediated.

I agree with C too. Permissions can block remediation.

Yeah, B makes sense. If the file is in use, it can't be fixed.

I’m a bit confused about A. If another scan is running, does that really prevent remediation? I’m not sure about that one.

I practiced a similar question where permissions were a factor. I think C might be one of the answers here.

I’m not entirely sure, but I think if a file is marked for deletion, it might not be remediated either. So, D could be right too.

I remember something about files being in use causing issues with remediation. So, B seems like a solid choice.
