Real-time monitoring to block advanced security threats.

• A. Detection
• B. Remediation and Response
• C. Prevention
• D. Advanced Protection

Answer: (A)

Detecting threats as they occur is what real-time monitoring is designed to do. It involves continuously watching endpoint and network activity, using analytics and threat intelligence to spot suspicious behavior or indicators of compromise. When something is detected, defenses can automatically block, quarantine, or alert, enabling rapid containment. This focus on identifying threats in the moment distinguishes it from remediation and response (which happens after a threat is found) and from prevention (which aims to stop threats before they execute). Advanced protection can include multiple capabilities, but it doesn’t pinpoint the specific act of recognizing threats in real time. So the best fit for real-time monitoring to block advanced security threats is detection.
