What metric would a SOC use to measure the amount of time that elapses between a security incident occurring and the SOC identifying the incident? A. MTTD B. MTTR C. MTBF D. MITRE Correct Answer: A The mean time to repair (MTTR) and mean time between failures (MTBF) are business continuity metrics. So, these two are not the correct answers. The mean time to detection (MTTD) is the typical time taken to detect a security incident. This is the correct answer. MITRE is a security consulting firm and government think tank. So, that is not what we are looking for in this scenario.   Interested in more practice test questions?   Get a copy of my official CertMike Practice Test books for the Security+ exam, CISSP exam, SSCP exam, or CySA+ exam and practice with hundreds of questions designed just like the real test! ...

Ryan is building out a cloud web architecture and wishes to provide the maximum possible degree of fault tolerance while still working with a single IaaS vendor. Which one of the following solutions would best meet his needs? A. Creating redundant web servers across multiple vendors B. Creating redundant web servers in different regions C. Creating redundant web servers in different availability zones D. Creating redundant web servers in the same availability zone For the correct answer and an explanation, watch the video above! Correct Answer: B The most fault-tolerant solution would involve multiple vendors, but Ryan specified that he wanted to work with a single vendor, so this is not an acceptable solution. Therefore, Ryan should strive for the solution that has the greatest geographic and logical redundancy within his vendor's environment. The best solution would be to use redundant servers in multiple regions. Availability zones are subsets of regions and provide less redundancy, not meeting Ryans architecture needs. Operating servers in the same availability zone would create multiple single points of failure, making it another incorrect answer.   Interested in more practice test questions?   Get a copy of my official CertMike Practice Test books for the Security+ exam, CISSP exam, SSCP exam, or CySA+ exam and practice with hundreds of questions designed just like the real test! ...
