Certified Network Defender (CND) — Question 143

Maximus Tech is a multinational company that uses Cisco ASA Firewalls for their systems. Jason is the one of the members of the team that checks the logs at Maximus Tech. As a part of his job, he is going through the logs and he came across a firewall log that looks like this:

May 06 2018 21:27:27 asa 1: % ASA -5 – 11008: User ‘enable_15’ executed the ‘configure term’ command

Based on the security level mentioned in the log, what did Jason understand about the description of this message?

Answer options

• A. Warning condition message
• B. Critical condition message
• C. Normal but significant message
• D. Informational message

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the message indicates a critical condition based on the severity level specified in the log. Options A, C, and D describe less severe conditions and do not accurately reflect the criticality implied by the log entry.
