A System Isolation stops malware from spreading, but it doesn’t restore the system. This is an initial containment step, not a business continuity solution. I think the best answer is B. Reimaging, because is the most reliable way to restore a compromised system to a clean state.

The main wording I wonder about it it’s a critical server and to continue the business in which case it might be C malware removal. We can not be certain that we fully removed the malware but we can continue until we can reimage maybe. Since this server is critical isolation is totally out of the question and reimagining might be as well.

Actually if it is corrupted and already fubar then your answer of reimaging is correct. I missed that word the first time.

Key words "potentially infected". You wouldn't reimage without knowing if it's actually corrupted. Isolating (A) would be the no-brainer 1st step

Business Continuity focuses on keeping the business running after or during a disruption. It answers: "How do we continue operating if this system goes down?" Isolating a compromised server: Incident Response Ensuring operations continue despite the server outage : Business Continuity

Selected Answer: A
The correct answer is: A. System isolation Explanation: When a system that provides the user interface for a critical server is potentially compromised by malware, the first and best step to ensure business continuity and prevent further spread or damage is to isolate the system. • System isolation ensures that the malware cannot communicate with other systems or propagate through the network. • It helps protect critical infrastructure while allowing time for analysis and remediation. • This step maintains business continuity by containing the threat without immediately disrupting other systems.

When a system connected to a critical server is suspected to be compromised by malware, the first and best action to ensure business continuity and prevent further damage is to isolate the system. âź¶Reimaging is a good remediation step, but not appropriate until after containment. You must isolate first to prevent damage or spread.
