CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 189

Which of the following is a vulnerable system designed to detect and log unauthorized access?

Answer options

• A. SIEM
• B. Honeypot
• C. DMZ
• D. Proxy server

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Honeypot, as it is specifically created to attract attackers and log their activities. SIEM (A) is a security information and event management system that analyzes data but is not specifically designed to lure unauthorized users. DMZ (C) is a network segment that adds an extra layer of security, while a Proxy server (D) acts as an intermediary for requests but does not inherently log unauthorized access.
