Explanation
Option A: Falcon Cloud Workload Protection (CWP) provides advanced runtime protection by monitoring for Indicators of Attack (IOAs). It integrates with container and cloud environments to detect malicious behaviors, including exploitation attempts, file modifications, and lateral movement. CWP focuses on runtime protection without impacting workloads, making it the most effective solution in this scenario. Option B: Vulnerability scanners identify known weaknesses but are not effective in detecting real-time Indicators of Attack (IOAs) or runtime behaviors. They are complementary to runtime protection but not a substitute for it. Option C: While Falcon Sensor provides real-time monitoring, deploying sensors in dynamic cloud environments may introduce operational overhead, especially in environments with ephemeral resources like containers. Option D: Manual log analysis is labor-intensive, error-prone, and lacks the real-time detection capabilities required to identify IOAs effectively. It is not scalable for large or complex cloud
