Question 40
A regulated organization needs a safer design because: A SOC promotes every external threat indicator to a high-severity alert without validating matches against tenant events. Which change MOST directly mitigates the design gap?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Intelligence relevance depends on actual environment observations rather than feed labels alone. This choice directly fits the stated architecture requirement.
Incorrect Answers
This recommendation fits a different scenario: A malware campaign changes IP addresses while maintaining the same credential-theft technique. Technique-oriented analytics survive changes to attacker infrastructure. It does not solve the specified case, for which Enrich external indicators with local telemetry, time context and confidence before escalation. is appropriate.
This recommendation fits a different scenario: A detection rule catches a false-positive administrative script, and the owner asks for blanket script exclusions. Scoped exceptions limit noise without removing visibility for genuine malicious variants. It does not solve the specified case, for which Enrich external indicators with local telemetry, time context and confidence before escalation. is appropriate.
This recommendation fits a different scenario: Endpoint detectors become noisy after a new sensor rollout, and leadership believes attacks have doubled. Improved visibility can increase alert counts without a matching change in attacker activity. It does not solve the specified case, for which Enrich external indicators with local telemetry, time context and confidence before escalation. is appropriate.
