CompTIA Exam SY0-601 Topic 4 Question 78 Discussion

Actual exam question for CompTIA's SY0-601 exam
Question #: 78
Topic #: 4
[All SY0-601 Questions]

The primary goal of the threat-hunting team at a large company is to identify cyberthreats that the SOC has not detected. Which of the following types of data would the threat-hunting team primarily use to identify systems that are exploitable?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

A vulnerability scan is a type of data that can identify systems that are exploitable by detecting known weaknesses and misconfigurations in the software and hardware. Packet capture, threat feed, and user behavior are types of data that can help identify malicious activities or indicators of compromise, but not necessarily the systems that are vulnerable to exploitation.

User behavior might also play a role in identifying exploitable systems, as abnormal behavior could indicate a potential threat.

I think threat feeds could also be useful for the threat-hunting team to stay updated on new cyberthreats.

I'm not so sure about that. User behavior could be a really important factor too. If the threat-hunting team sees unusual activity, that might be a sign of an exploit.

You know, I'm tempted to go with user behavior data. If the threat-hunters can spot anomalies in user activity, they might uncover some sneaky attacks that the other data won't reveal.

Good point, but I feel the threat feed is also crucial. That'll give them the latest intel on emerging threats they need to be on the lookout for.

That's a good point, Son. But I think packet capture is still the most comprehensive approach. You can see everything that's happening, not just known threats.

I'm not so sure about that. Wouldn't the packet capture give them more insights into the actual traffic and potential threats that are sneaking through the SOC's detection?

Hmm, I was thinking C) Threat feed might be the way to go. The threat-hunting team could use that to identify known exploits and then look for systems that might be vulnerable to them.

Hmm, this seems like an interesting question. I'd say the primary data the threat-hunting team would use is the vulnerability scan. That'll give them a clear picture of the systems that are exploitable, right?

I agree with Pearline. Packet capture seems like the best option here. You can see the actual traffic going in and out of the network, and that might reveal something the SOC missed.

Yeah, it's a tough one. I'm leaning towards B) Packet capture, but I'm not 100% confident. Vulnerability scans can give you a good idea of what's exploitable, but I think the threat-hunting team would want to actually see what's happening on the network.
