CAS-004 Exam Dumps : CompTIA SecurityX Certification Exam

UEBA (User and Entity Behavior Analytics)uses machine learning and advanced analytics to detect abnormal patterns of behavior, such as unusual access or actions by employees.

Implementing UEBA automates the analysis of logs and identifies suspicious activities, significantly reducing the manual effort required.

OptionB(HSM) is incorrect because a hardware security module is used for secure key management, not log analysis.

OptionC(HIPS) is incorrect because a host intrusion prevention system focuses on preventing attacks on endpoints rather than log analysis.

OptionD(XDR) extends threat detection and response across multiple domains, but it is broader in scope and does not focus specifically on user behavior analysis.

OptionE(OPSEC training) is valuable for educating employees but does not streamline the breach investigation process.

An EDR and whitelist should protect from this attack.

This is because a risk assessment requires identifying the assets that are valuable to the organization and could be targeted by attackers. A full inventory of information and data assets can help the analyst prioritize the most critical assets and determine their potential exposure to threats. Without knowing what assets are at stake, the analyst cannot effectively assess the risk level or the impact of an attack. Creating an inventory of assets is also a prerequisite for performing other actions, such as following compliance standards, measuring availability, or conducting penetration tests.
