Explanation
Option B is correct because modern organizations facing today's threat landscape pursue three interconnected goals: complete protection (not just blocking known threats), visibility and control (understanding what's happening across their environment), and an enabled business (security that supports rather than impedes operations). These three pillars represent the holistic security posture most enterprises now demand.
- A fails because "increased scalability" is not a primary security outcome, and limiting protection to current threats leaves organizations exposed to emerging or unknown threats - exactly what modern security must address.
- C fails for the same reason: "blocking only current threats" is dangerously inadequate, and "scalability" replaces the critical element of complete protection.
- D fails because "increased fragmentation" is the opposite of a desired outcome - fragmented security tools create gaps and blind spots, which is a core problem customers are trying to solve, not create.
Memory tip: Think of the acronym CPE - Complete protection, Prevention/visibility & control (the middle piece), Enabled business. Security that's complete, visible, and business-enabling = Option B.
