What is a quality requirement for a secure SMB?

Question

Options

• Aendpoint security with threat hunting and vulnerability management
• Bzero trust identity-based access to every application
• Clow friction secure access process
• Dcloud-delivered security to all devices

• A
  88% (21)
• B
  4% (1)
• D
  8% (2)

Explanation

Option A is correct because endpoint security combined with threat hunting and vulnerability management directly addresses the core attack surface for SMBs - their devices and systems. SMBs are frequent targets precisely because they lack proactive defenses; threat hunting identifies active threats before damage occurs, while vulnerability management closes exploitable gaps, making this a complete, foundational security posture.

B is wrong because zero trust identity-based access is an enterprise-grade architecture that, while valuable, is too broad and resource-intensive to be the defining quality requirement for an SMB specifically - it's a strategic framework, not a focused security requirement.

C is wrong because "low friction secure access" describes a user experience goal (ease of use), not a security quality standard - reducing friction alone doesn't ensure protection.

D is wrong because cloud-delivered security describes a delivery mechanism, not a security requirement itself; how security is delivered is separate from what quality of security is required.

Memory tip: Think of the SMB as a small shop - you need a guard (threat hunting) watching for intruders and regular inspections (vulnerability management) of your locks (endpoints). That's your quality baseline - A for "Active defense of your Assets."
