Question 570
An endpoint alert involves an outdated browser version exposed to a known exploit, but no malicious process activity is present. Which action most directly addresses the observed condition?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Vulnerability presence is not synonymous with confirmed exploitation. This directly addresses the requirement to distinguish exposure from active compromise.
Incorrect Answers
Threat exposure and incident context together inform remediation priority. This addresses prioritize risky endpoint vulnerabilities; it does not directly satisfy distinguish exposure from active compromise.
Software inventories help identify similarly exposed devices beyond the first alert. That action focuses on scope affected vulnerable software footprint rather than the specified need to distinguish exposure from active compromise.
Device inventory timing can lag a real patch deployment. This addresses validate apparent stale vulnerability findings; it does not directly satisfy distinguish exposure from active compromise.
