Practice question 238 of 498 · hard

A company can either gain many points from a low-impact recommendation or immediately reduce exposure of a critical identity. Which decision best uses Secure Score?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.Treat the score as the incident-response queue
  2. B.Defer all changes until the industry-average score is reached
  3. C.Always select the action with the most points
  4. D.Prioritize the critical identity risk and track score improvements alongside residual exposure
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Prioritize the critical identity risk and track score improvements alongside residual exposure

Business risk should drive remediation while Secure Score tracks recommended improvements. Maximizing points can miss urgent exposure. Waiting for a benchmark delays protection. A posture metric is not an incident-response queue.
