QUESTION 1
A threat actor attacked an organization’s Active Directory server from a remote location, and in a thirty-minute
timeframe, stole the password for the administrator account and attempted to access 3 company servers. The
threat actor successfully accessed the first server that contained sales data, but no files were downloaded. A
second server was also accessed that contained marketing information and 11 files were downloaded. When
the threat actor accessed the third server that contained corporate financial data, the session was
disconnected, and the administrator’s account was disabled. Which activity triggered the behavior analytics tool?

A. accessing the Active Directory server
B. accessing the server with financial data
C. accessing multiple servers
D. downloading more than 10 files

Correct Answer: C
