Question 287

What makes Anti-Bot unique compared to other Threat Prevention mechanisms, such as URL Filtering, Anti-Virus, IPS, and Threat Emulation?

    Correct Answer: C

    Anti-Bot is a post-infection malware protection mechanism designed to prevent an infected host from establishing a connection to a Command Control Center (C&C). Unlike URL Filtering, Anti-Virus, IPS, and Threat Emulation, Anti-Bot specifically targets the communication aspect of malware that has already infected a host, ensuring that it cannot connect to its control servers to receive further instructions or send stolen data. This unique focus on post-infection behavior makes it distinct from other threat prevention mechanisms that primarily aim to prevent initial infection.
