A threat actor has crafted and sent a spear-phishing email with what appears to be a trustworthy link to the site of a conference that an employee recently attended. The employee clicked the link and was redirected to a malicious site through which the employee downloaded a PDF attachment infected with ransomware. The employee opened the attachment, which exploited vulnerabilities on the desktop. The ransomware is now installed and is calling back to its command and control server. Which security solution is needed at this stage to mitigate the attack?

Okay, let me see here. The question is asking which two file formats the reports can be initially displayed in, out of the five listed. I'll need to consider the common file types used for reports and presentations.

Okay, let's see. The question is asking about the domains of business architecture, so I'll need to recall what those are and how they relate to a customer-centric approach. I've got a few ideas, but I'll double-check my understanding.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know FISMA covers information security, but I can't quite remember all the specific objectives it defines. I'll have to think this through carefully.
