Topic #: 4
[All 312-85 Questions]

Walter and Sons Company has faced major cyber attacks and lost confidential dat

a. The company has decided to concentrate more on the security rather than other resources. Therefore, they hired Alice, a threat analyst, to perform data analysis. Alice was asked to perform qualitative data analysis to extract useful information from collected bulk data.

Which of the following techniques will help Alice to perform qualitative data analysis?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

For Alice to perform qualitative data analysis, techniques such as brainstorming, interviewing, SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis, and the Delphi technique are suitable. Unlike quantitative analysis, which involves numerical calculations and statistical modeling, qualitative analysis focuses on understanding patterns, themes, and narratives within the data. These techniques enable the analyst to explore the data's deeper meanings and insights, which are essential for strategic decision-making and developing a nuanced understanding of cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities. Reference:

'Qualitative Research Methods in Cybersecurity,' SANS Institute Reading Room

'The Delphi Method for Cybersecurity Risk Assessment,' by Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)

Numerical calculations and statistical modeling are great for quantitative analysis, but for qualitative, you need those more human-centric approaches. Option C is the clear winner here.
