Question 1 of 30
System analysis indicates that an organization is seeking to enhance its continuous monitoring capabilities to meet evolving cybersecurity threats and regulatory compliance mandates. Given limited resources, which of the following strategies would best balance effectiveness, efficiency, and adherence to regulatory expectations for proactive threat detection and incident response?
Implement a risk-based continuous monitoring strategy that prioritizes critical assets and data, utilizing a blend of automated anomaly detection, log analysis, vulnerability scanning, and periodic manual reviews informed by threat intelligence.
Establish a reactive monitoring system that triggers alerts and investigations only after a security incident has been officially reported by internal or external parties.
Deploy comprehensive perimeter security solutions and focus all monitoring efforts on external network traffic, neglecting internal network activity and endpoint monitoring.
Rely exclusively on signature-based malware detection tools, assuming that all threats will eventually be cataloged and detectable through this method.
