Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) — Question 364

An organization received a large amount of SPAM messages over a short time period. In order to take action on the messages, it must be determined how harmful the messages are and this needs to happen dynamically. What must be configured to accomplish this?

Answer options

• A. Configure the Cisco WSA to modify policies based on the traffic seen.
• B. Configure the Cisco ESA to modify policies based on the traffic seen.
• C. Configure the Cisco WSA to receive real-time updates from Cisco Talos.
• D. Configure the Cisco ESA to receive real-time updates from Cisco Talos.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because configuring the Cisco ESA to receive real-time updates from Cisco Talos allows it to dynamically assess the threat level of incoming messages. Options A and B do not provide the necessary real-time updates for threat assessment, while option C involves the Cisco WSA, which is not the focus for managing SPAM messages in this scenario.
