What are two benefits that are provided by file trajectory services? (Choose two)

The correct answer is A. identifies malware point of entry B. highlights attack propagation paths. File trajectory services (used in solutions like Cisco AMP for Endpoints) track the movement and history of files across a network over time. This gives security teams the ability to identify where a malicious file first entered the network (Option A) and trace how it spread acro

Explanation

File trajectory services (used in solutions like Cisco AMP for Endpoints) track the movement and history of files across a network over time. This gives security teams the ability to identify where a malicious file first entered the network (Option A) and trace how it spread across systems (Option B) - both core capabilities of retrospective security analysis.

Options C, D, and E are wrong because they describe functions of entirely different security tools: OS patching belongs to patch management systems, blacklisting malware gateways is a threat intelligence/reputation feed function, and pushing firewall updates is handled by firewall management platforms. File trajectory is purely about file movement visibility, not remediation or enforcement.

Memory tip: Think of "trajectory" as a flight path - file trajectory services answer "where did this file come from and where did it go?" - entry point (A) and propagation path (B). Anything involving patching, updating, or blocking is out of scope.
