The auto update frequency can be set to occur on which two intervals? (Choose two.)

Question

Options

• ADaily
• BHourly
• CWeekly
• DBi-weekly
• EBi-monthly

• A
  87% (26)
• B
  3% (1)
• D
  3% (1)
• E
  7% (2)

Explanation

Daily (A) and Weekly (C) are the two supported auto update intervals because most systems that offer configurable update schedules are designed around these two practical cadences - frequent enough for security patches (daily) while also supporting a lighter-weight weekly option for less critical environments.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• Hourly (B) is too granular for a scheduled auto-update cycle; real-time or near-real-time updates are handled through push/streaming mechanisms, not polling intervals.
• Bi-weekly (D) and Bi-monthly (E) are not offered as built-in options, as they are considered too infrequent for maintaining up-to-date definitions or patches in most systems.

Memory tip: Think "D and W" - Daily and Weekly are the two update windows. These mirror the most common human work rhythms (end of day / end of week), which is exactly why system designers chose them as the standard intervals.
