Cevap

The technician should schedule automatic anti-malware updates and routine system scans.
The CompTIA 7-step malware remediation process follows a specific order: 1. Identify malware symptoms, 2. Quarantine infected systems, 3. Disable System Restore, 4. Remediate infected systems (update anti-malware signatures, scan, and remove), 5. Schedule updates and initiate scans, 6. Enable System Restore and create a restore point, and 7. Educate the end user. Since remediation (Step 4) has just concluded, the correct next action is Step 5: scheduling updates and scans.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the current step in the CompTIA 7-step malware remediation process.
The technician has completed Step 1 (Identify), Step 2 (Quarantine), Step 3 (Disable System Restore), and Step 4 (Remediate: update anti-malware and scan/remove).
Tracking current progress ensures strict adherence to standard operating procedures.
2
Determine the next sequential step in the process.
Step 5 is 'Schedule updates and initiate scans'.
Scheduling updates and scans ensures the system remains protected against future infections before finalizing system configuration.
3
Select the option that matches Step 5.
Scheduling automatic anti-malware updates and routine system scans.
This directly fulfills Step 5 of the 7-step remediation workflow.
