Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Correlation rule using user and location attributes.

    Why this is correct

    Comparing geographic data for a single user is a classic use case.

  • Vulnerability scanning.

    Why it's wrong here

    Scanning only maps weaknesses.

  • Log compression.

    Why it's wrong here

    Compression does not aid in detection.

  • Full packet capture.

    Why it's wrong here

    Packet capture is too granular for this level of analysis.
