Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Isolate
Process isolation is not a standard AMP action; however, AMP allows endpoint isolation (network containment) and remote shell for investigation. The best option is to isolate the endpoint and use remote shell. But since only one action is allowed, 'Isolate' is the correct answer as it blocks network traffic while allowing AMP management.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Process isolation
Why it's wrong here
AMP does not isolate processes individually; it isolates the whole endpoint.
- ✗
File quarantine
Why it's wrong here
Quarantine removes a file, but does not isolate the endpoint.
- ✗
Remove connector
Why it's wrong here
Removing the connector would stop management and investigation.
- ✓
Isolate
Why this is correct
Correct. Isolate blocks network traffic except to the AMP cloud, allowing remote investigation.
