CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 379

Which of the following enables the ability to receive a consolidated report from different devices on the network?

Answer options

• A. IPS
• B. DLP
• C. SIEM
• D. Firewall

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is SIEM, as it aggregates and analyzes security data from multiple sources across the network to provide comprehensive reporting. IPS, DLP, and Firewall serve different security functions, such as intrusion prevention, data loss prevention, and traffic filtering, but do not focus on consolidating reports from various network devices.
