What log information would be most helpful to her in this case? A. Router Logs B. Host Firewall Logs C. Netflow Logs D. Application Logs Correct Answer: C It is possible that any of these log sources might contain relevant information, but the netflow logs are most likely to be helpful, as they track network connections directly. Router logs do not normally record network traffic, but rather track router events. Host firewall logs may contain the relevant information, but they could be spread across multiple systems. Application logs would only contain application-specific information. Interested in more practice test questions?

In disaster recovery terms, what metric has he documented? A. Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) B. Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) C. Recovery Time Objective (RTO) D. Recovery Point Objective (RPO) Correct Answer: A The recovery time objective (RTO) is the amount of time that the business can tolerate an outage during a disaster. That's not quite what we're looking for here, so it's not the correct answer. The recovery point objective (RPO) is the amount of tolerable data loss. The RPO also isn't what's described in this question. The mean time to repair (MTTR) is the amount of time required to repair a damaged system, so we can eliminate that choice. That leaves us with the correct answer, the mean time between failures (MTBF) which describes the frequency of failures, or the amount of time between failures.
