Question No: 1
MultipleChoice
Which two tasks are considered frequent and high-priority when actively reviewing the threat landscape? (Select two.)
Options
Answer C, EExplanation
Active threat landscape review is an operational detection-and-analysis function: it focuses on what is happening now, what is likely to impact the environment, and what telemetry indicates elevated risk. Monitoring current threats and vulnerabilities (C) keeps analysts aligned to emergent campaigns (new phishing kits, BEC lures, malware droppers, supplier compromise patterns) and to exposure shifts (fresh CVEs that enable email-to-endpoint execution chains, new MFA-bypass trends, OAuth consent abuse). Reviewing monitoring data for risk-based decisions (E) is the day-to-day SOC activity that converts signals into priorities: TAP Threats/People views (Intended/At Risk/Impacted, clicks, severity), message traces (Smart Search), and threat response outcomes (quarantines/pulls). These two tasks directly reduce time-to-detect and time-to-contain by ensuring analysts focus on threats with user interaction, VIP targeting, and campaign spread. The other options are valuable but not ''frequent and high-priority'' in active landscape review: training content updates are periodic program work, pen tests are annual/episodic, and archiving is compliance-driven rather than real-time threat prioritization.
