Exam SY0-701 topic 1 question 329 discussion

Different vendors = different systems right? So think about it logically: all systems will not be vulnerable to the same type of vulnerability as they are different. The only answer that makes sense here is patch availability. Zero-day resiliency doesnt make sense as having different vendors does not necessarily protect you from zero-day exploits.

B. Zero-day resiliency: By diversifying vendors, organizations can minimize the impact of zero-day vulnerabilities because not all systems or solutions would rely on the same vendor’s potentially vulnerable software. This reduces the likelihood that a single exploit could compromise the entire infrastructure.

Vendor diversity means using products and services from multiple vendors instead of relying on a single provider. This helps improve resiliency because: ✅ If a zero-day vulnerability affects one vendor’s product, other vendor systems may remain unaffected.

The correct answer is: B. Zero-day resiliency Explanation: Vendor diversity involves using products or services from multiple vendors for critical systems. This approach can improve security by reducing the impact of vulnerabilities specific to a single vendor.
