Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

A detective control is a type of security control that monitors and analyzes events to detect and report on potential or actual security incidents. A SIEM system is an example of a detective control, as it collects, correlates, and analyzes security data from various sources and generates alerts for security teams. Corrective, preventive, and deterrent controls are different types of security controls that aim to restore, protect, or discourage security breaches, respectively.Reference:CompTIA Security+ Study Guide: Exam SY0-701, 9th Edition, page 33;What is Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)?

Nope, definitely Detective. Logs help identify issues after they happen.

Wait, isn't this more of a Preventive measure?

I could be wrong, but I feel like the weekly log review might also have some corrective aspects, since it helps fix issues after they are detected.

This reminds me of a practice question where we discussed SIEM systems; I think they were classified as detective controls too.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about preventive controls being proactive, while this seems more reactive?

I think this is about detective controls since the analyst is reviewing logs to find issues after they happen.

I feel confident this is a Detective control. The SIEM system is designed to identify potential security events, and the weekly review by an analyst is a way to actively monitor those logs for any suspicious activity. Seems pretty clear-cut to me.

Okay, let me break this down. A SIEM system is used to monitor and analyze security logs, which sounds like a Detective control to identify issues. But the weekly review by an analyst adds an extra layer of detection, so I'm leaning towards C. Detective controls.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure here. Is it possible that the weekly log review could also be considered a Preventive control, to stop incidents before they happen? I'll have to think this through carefully.

This seems pretty straightforward - the company is setting up a SIEM system to detect potential security incidents, so the answer must be Detective controls.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Should I be removing power from the devices or just leaving everything alone? The options seem to conflict a bit. I think I'll go with option B, since it sounds like the safest approach to preserve the scene without risking the evidence.

This is a tricky one. I'm torn between a few of the options, but I think I'm leaning towards B, Contact Request flow. That seems like it could handle the routing and automation needs. I'll need to double-check the details, though.

Okay, let me think this through. The question says the resource will be used for sentiment analysis, so I'm guessing the correct service is TextAnalytics. Now I just need to figure out the right pricing tier and region.
