Question #: 78
Topic #: 4

The primary goal of the threat-hunting team at a large company is to identify cyberthreats that the SOC has not detected. Which of the following types of data would the threat-hunting team primarily use to identify systems that are exploitable?

AVulnerability scan

BPacket capture

CThreat feed

DUser behavior

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

A vulnerability scan is a type of data that can identify systems that are exploitable by detecting known weaknesses and misconfigurations in the software and hardware. Packet capture, threat feed, and user behavior are types of data that can help identify malicious activities or indicators of compromise, but not necessarily the systems that are vulnerable to exploitation.

Yeah, it's a tough one. I'm leaning towards B) Packet capture, but I'm not 100% confident. Vulnerability scans can give you a good idea of what's exploitable, but I think the threat-hunting team would want to actually see what's happening on the network.
