Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v13) — Question 170
Roma is a member of a security team. She was tasked with protecting the internal network of an organization from imminent threats. To accomplish this task, Roma fed threat intelligence into the security devices in a digital format to block and identify inbound and outbound malicious traffic entering the organization's network.
Which type of threat intelligence is used by Roma to secure the internal network?
Answer options
- A. Operational threat intelligence
- B. Strategic threat intelligence
- C. Tactical threat intelligence
- D. Technical threat intelligence
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D, Technical threat intelligence, as it specifically involves the use of digital formats to enhance security devices for identifying and blocking threats. Operational and tactical threat intelligence focus more on processes and strategies rather than the technical implementation needed for real-time monitoring. Strategic threat intelligence is broader and deals with higher-level trends and forecasts rather than immediate technical details.
