Eccouncil 712-50 Exam - Topic 1 Question 35 Discussion

Actual exam question for Eccouncil's 712-50 exam

Question #: 35
Topic #: 1

Scenario: Your corporate systems have been under constant probing and attack from foreign IP addresses for more than a week. Your security team and security infrastructure have performed well under the stress. You are confident that your defenses have held up under the test, but rumors are spreading that sensitive customer data has been stolen and is now being sold on the Internet by criminal elements. During your investigation of the rumored compromise you discover that data has been breached and you have discovered the repository of stolen data on a server located in a foreign country. Your team now has full access to the data on the foreign server.

Your defenses did not hold up to the test as originally thought. As you investigate how the data was compromised through log analysis you discover that a hardworking, but misguided business intelligence analyst posted the data to an obfuscated URL on a popular cloud storage service so they could work on it from home during their off-time. Which technology or solution could you deploy to prevent employees from removing corporate data from your network? Choose the BEST answer.

BData Loss Prevention (DLP)

I'm surprised they didn't have better controls in place already.

Security guards? Really? That feels outdated. I think we need something more tech-savvy like IDS or DLP to actually prevent data loss.

I practiced a similar question where DLP was highlighted as crucial for protecting sensitive information. It makes sense in this scenario too.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think syslog reviews are more about detecting issues after they happen, not preventing data leaks.

I remember studying DLP solutions and how they can monitor and control data transfers. Seems like the best fit here.

This seems like a tricky situation. I'd want to carefully review the contract terms to see what obligations the vendor has and what options Rachael has under the agreement.

I'm a little unsure about this one. Do I need to convert the annual salary to a 6-month amount before calculating the percentage increase? Or can I just use the full annual salary?

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to double-check the syntax and behavior of the different string methods to make sure I select the correct option.

Okay, let's break this down. The marketing materials included historical performance data and bios on the investment professionals. I think the main issue is whether that information was representative and accurately portrayed United Partners' capabilities.

I've seen similar questions where cost of changes is highest early on, which might support D.
