  4. D

Cevap

The technician should disconnect the computer from the local network to isolate it and disable System Restore in Windows before running anti-malware scans.
According to the CompTIA 7-step malware removal procedure, after identifying malware (Step 1), the technician must isolate the infected system (Step 2) and disable System Restore (Step 3) before updating anti-malware tools and scanning (Step 4). Disconnecting the network cable isolates the host, while disabling System Restore prevents infected files from being saved into system snapshots.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify malware symptoms on the system.
Malware presence is identified based on pop-ups and high CPU usage.
Establishes that the system requires remediation under the 7-step removal process.
2
Isolate the infected system by disconnecting network cables and turning off Wi-Fi.
Network communication is completely severed.
Prevents lateral movement of malware to other network resources and stops command-and-control communication.
3
Disable System Restore in Windows.
System restore point creation is suspended and previous infected restore points are removed.
Prevents malicious code from being preserved in Windows restore points during scanning and remediation.
