Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI v10) — Question 91

George is a senior security analyst working for a state agency in Florida. His state's congress just passed a bill mandating every state agency to undergo a security audit annually. After learning what will be required, George needs to implement an IDS as soon as possible before the first audit occurs. The state bill requires that an IDS with a "time-based induction machine" be used.
What IDS feature must George implement to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Signature-based anomaly detection
• B. Pattern matching
• C. Real-time anomaly detection
• D. Statistical-based anomaly detection

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as real-time anomaly detection aligns with the requirement for a 'time-based induction machine', allowing the IDS to identify and respond to threats as they occur. The other options, while related to IDS functionality, do not specifically address the time-sensitive aspect mandated by the bill.
