Cybersecurity and Response Planningintermediate
Match each cybersecurity monitoring technology or telemetry source to its primary function: Technologies: 1. EDR 2. SIEM 3. Full-packet capture 4. NetFlow Functions: - Records detailed host-level and process activity on endpoints - Ingests and correlates event logs from diverse enterprise sources - Captures and preserves complete network payloads and packet headers - Generates statistical metadata summaries of network sessions (e.g., source, destination, volume)
Answer
EDR - Records detailed host-level and process activity on endpoints; SIEM - Ingests and correlates event logs from diverse enterprise sources; Full-packet capture - Captures and preserves complete network payloads and packet headers; NetFlow - Generates statistical metadata summaries of network sessions (e.g., source, destination, volume)
Explanation
### The pairs
| Item | Matches | Why |
|---|---|---|
| EDR | Records endpoint activity for investigation | Endpoint telemetry helps analysts examine device behavior. |
| SIEM | Ingests and correlates logs from diverse sources | Correlation helps reveal relationships across an environment. |
| Full-packet capture | Retains detailed network traffic contents | It provides detailed evidence but increases storage demands. |
| NetFlow | Summarizes traffic origin, destination, and amount | Flow records describe communication without storing every packet's full content. |
### Remember
Endpoint, aggregated logs, packet contents, and flow summaries are different evidence sources.
