Surprised that people think disabling autorun is a fix!

A is all about blocking, not fixing.

I thought training users was more about prevention too, but maybe it helps correct issues after they happen? I’m confused about D now.

I’m leaning towards B because it mentions disabling communication by hosts with viruses, which sounds like a corrective action. But I’m not completely confident.

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to identify corrective measures. I feel like disabling autorun features is more about prevention, so it might not be C.

I think the question is asking about actions that fix issues rather than stop them from happening. I’m not sure if it’s B or D.

I feel pretty confident about this one. The key is that the question is asking about corrective actions, not preventative. So the answer has to be B - using Network access control to disable infected hosts.

I'm a bit confused by this one. All the options seem to be about prevention, not correction. I'll have to think it through more carefully before answering.

Okay, I think I've got it. The question is asking about correcting rather than preventing, so the answer must be B. Disabling infected hosts makes the most sense as a corrective action.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'm trying to think through the different options, but they all seem related to prevention rather than correction. I'll have to re-read the question carefully.

This question seems straightforward. I think the answer is B - using Network access control to disable communication by hosts with viruses, since that's focused on correcting the issue rather than preventing the attack.

Haha, I'm just imagining all the users trying to outrun their own computers to disable the autorun features. Option C seems a bit overkill.

I agree with Theodora. Option B is the best answer since it's directly addressing the issue of removing malicious software, not just preventing it.

Yes, disabling communication by hosts with viruses is a corrective action.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Option D about training users to spot phishing seems like a good preventative measure to me.

User 2: But disabling autorun features is focused on correcting the issue after it has occurred.

Option B seems like the right choice here, as it's focused on stopping infected hosts from communicating and spreading the malware further.

But training users to recognize phishing attempts can also help correct the attack after it happens.

I agree with Zona, disabling autorun features is a reactive measure.
