The CompTIA exams seem like a game of deception… nothing to do with actual skill or knowledge.

It would be hard to track the times that things happened if the times are all wrong. Silly question but its CompTIA so what did we expect from them really!

maybe these questionable times can be isolated once compared against the baseline or some other log from before....

CompTIA has touched on this same subject multiple times, in multiple ways. You can't put together logs from different devices in a cohesive manner if the times are different on said devices. NTP accomplishes time-sync to ensure logs can be effectively used. Besides, none of the other answers are even remotely applicable to viewing logs.

The technician seems to know what happened and only wants to trace it's history. NTP is the best answer.

I chose C only because the other answers didn't make much sense. But the more I think about it I'm not sure how NTP would make much sense either. Is it that the time is 'corrupted' so it's more difficult to track when different events occured?

I think if the NTP is incorrect the technician won't be able to track the attack as the times would be incorrect/out. If it makes sense?
