Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Hover over the specific War Room entry, click the options menu, and select 'Delete'
Why this is correct
Authorized analysts can delete individual entries from the War Room history.
- ✗
Modify the integration code to retroactively scrub historical database entries
Why it's wrong here
Integration code execution does not retroactively modify past database records automatically without custom DB queries.
- ✗
Lock the incident, which automatically sanitizes all War Room text matching regex patterns
Why it's wrong here
Locking an incident prevents modifications; it does not sanitize historical text.
- ✗
Run the '!clear-war-room-secrets' command with the entry ID
Why it's wrong here
There is no built-in command named '!clear-war-room-secrets'.
