Which security component should you configure to block viruses not seen and blocked by the perimeter firewall?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Endpoint antivirus software is a type of software designed to help detect, prevent, and eliminate malware on devices, such as laptops, desktops, smartphones, and tablets. Endpoint antivirus software can block viruses that are not seen and blocked by the perimeter firewall, which is a network security device that monitors and controls incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predefined security rules. Perimeter firewall can block some known viruses, but it may not be able to detect and stop new or unknown viruses that use advanced techniques to evade detection.Endpoint antivirus software can provide an additional layer of protection by scanning the files and processes on the devices and using various methods, such as signatures, heuristics, behavior analysis, and cloud-based analysis, to identify and remove malicious code123.Reference:

I’m confused about C) and D), but I don’t think disk encryption or NIC ACLs would directly block viruses.

I feel like I've seen a similar question before, and it was about protecting endpoints, which makes me lean towards A) as well.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about strong passwords not really blocking viruses, so that rules out B) for me.

I'm a little stuck on this one. I know endpoint security is important, but I'm not sure which component is best for blocking viruses that get past the firewall. I may need to eliminate some options to narrow it down.

Endpoint antivirus is the obvious choice here. It's designed specifically to detect and block malware on the local machine. I feel pretty confident about selecting A.

Okay, let's see. The firewall is for the perimeter, so we need something on the endpoint itself to catch viruses. I'm leaning towards A or C, but I'll have to weigh the pros and cons of each.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'd need to think through the different security components and how they work to protect against viruses. Maybe I should review my notes on endpoint security.

I think the answer is A - endpoint antivirus software. That's usually the best way to catch viruses that slip through the firewall.
