An end user’s host becomes infected with a virus because the end user browsed to a malicious website. Which endpoint security technology can be used to best prevent such an incident?

  • personal firewall
  • personal antivirus
  • endpoint malware protection
  • file sandboxing
  • file integrity checks
Explanation & Hint:

To best prevent an incident where an end user’s host becomes infected with a virus from a malicious website, the most relevant endpoint security technology is:

Personal antivirus.

Personal antivirus software is specifically designed to detect and prevent a wide range of malware threats, including viruses, Trojans, worms, and other malicious software that can be encountered while browsing the web or downloading files. It can provide real-time scanning and protection to detect and block threats before they infect the host. While other security technologies like personal firewalls and file sandboxing can be important, personal antivirus is particularly focused on identifying and mitigating viruses and malware that can be encountered while browsing the internet.
