Isaca CDPSE Exam - Topic 7 Question 47 Discussion

Actual exam question for Isaca's CDPSE exam

Question #: 47
Topic #: 7

[All CDPSE Questions]

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.

Show Suggested Answer

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.

Credential management? Seems a bit basic for this issue.

Not sure if remote protection is enough though.

Definitely need more frequent network audits!

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
