Discuss Isaca CDPSE Exam Topic 7 Question 47

An increase in threats originating from endpoints is an indication that:

Anetwork audit frequency should increase.

Bnetwork protection should be maintained remotely.

Cextended detection and response should be installed.

Dcredential management should be implemented.

Suggested Answer: C

Extended detection and response (XDR) is a security solution that collects and analyzes data from multiple sources, such as endpoints, networks, servers, cloud, and applications, to detect and respond to threats in real time. XDR should be installed to address the increase in threats originating from endpoints, as it provides a holistic and integrated view of the threat landscape, as well as automated and coordinated actions to contain and remediate the threats. XDR also helps to improve the visibility, efficiency, and effectiveness of the security operations, as well as to reduce the complexity and costs of managing multiple security tools.

Wait, are endpoint threats really that serious?

Franklyn 11 months ago

Credential management? Seems a bit basic for this issue.

Vi 11 months ago

I think extended detection and response is a must now.

Dahlia 11 months ago

Not sure if remote protection is enough though.

Stefan 11 months ago

Definitely need more frequent network audits!

Mitsue 12 months ago

Credential management sounds important, but I’m not convinced it directly relates to endpoint threats. I’m leaning towards A or C instead.

Felicitas 12 months ago

I vaguely recall a practice question about endpoint security that mentioned extended detection and response. Maybe C is the answer?

Vallie 12 months ago

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like we discussed the importance of remote protection in class. Could B be relevant here?

Lenna 1 year ago

I think I remember something about increasing network audits when there are more endpoint threats, so maybe A is the right choice?

Peggie 1 year ago

Ah, this is a tricky one. I'm torn between A and D. Increased auditing or better credential management could both help address the issue. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Gilma 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Is it possible that the answer could be C - extended detection and response? That seems like it could also be a valid solution to increased endpoint threats.

Catarina 1 year ago

This one seems pretty straightforward. I think the answer is B - network protection should be maintained remotely. Increased endpoint threats indicate the need for better remote security measures.

Jovita 1 year ago

I've got it! The answer has to be D - credential management should be implemented. Endpoint threats are often caused by compromised credentials, so that's the logical solution here.

Thaddeus 1 year ago

I practiced a similar question where we had to link a function to a select menu. I chose the onchange event, so I think A is the correct answer here too.

Makeda 1 year ago

This seems straightforward enough. I just need to focus on applying the tax rules correctly for inherited property. I think I can handle this.

Alline 1 year ago

This seems like a straightforward question if you're familiar with the Huawei E9000 system. I'll quickly review the relevant information and select the correct answer.

A) network audit frequency should increase.

Annamae 2 years ago

I'm feeling a bit like a network security detective with this one. I think D is the answer - credential management is the real MVP when it comes to endpoint protection.

Ozell 2 years ago

↳ replying to Annamae

Remote network protection is important too, we need to cover all bases.

Marleen 2 years ago

↳ replying to Annamae

True, network audit frequency should also be increased to stay ahead of threats.

Casie 2 years ago

↳ replying to Annamae

I think we should also consider installing extended detection and response for better security.

Mattie 2 years ago

↳ replying to Annamae

I agree, credential management is crucial for endpoint protection.

Maryanne 2 years ago

Ah, the age-old battle between endpoints and network security. I'd say B is the way to go - remote protection is the key to staying one step ahead of the bad guys.

Felicia 2 years ago

↳ replying to Maryanne

C) extended detection and response should be installed.

Yuki 2 years ago

↳ replying to Maryanne

B) network protection should be maintained remotely.

Lachelle 2 years ago

Option C seems like the way to go. Extended detection and response could really help address those pesky endpoint threats.

Asha 2 years ago

↳ replying to Lachelle

Absolutely, it's important to have the right tools in place to protect against those threats.

Flo 2 years ago

↳ replying to Lachelle

I agree, having extended detection and response in place can definitely help in dealing with endpoint threats.

Mauricio 2 years ago

↳ replying to Lachelle

C) extended detection and response should be installed.

Stephen 2 years ago

I think credential management should be implemented to ensure only authorized users have access to endpoints.

Lili 2 years ago

I believe network protection should also be maintained remotely to prevent threats from spreading.

Elenore 2 years ago

I agree with Lavonne, extended detection and response can help us better detect and respond to threats.

Lavonne 2 years ago

I think an increase in threats from endpoints means we need to install extended detection and response.
