Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI) — Question 24

Which response organization tracks hoaxes as well as viruses?

Answer options

• A. NIPC
• B. FEDCIRC
• C. CERT
• D. CIAC

Correct answer: D

Explanation

CIAC (Computer Incident Advisory Capability) is known for tracking both hoaxes and viruses, making it the correct answer. NIPC (National Infrastructure Protection Center), FEDCIRC (Federal Cybersecurity Incident Response Center), and CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team) focus primarily on responding to cybersecurity incidents rather than specifically monitoring hoaxes.
