Cevap

Honeyfile
The correct answer is a honeyfile. A honeyfile is an intentionally placed decoy file containing synthetic or bait information. Because legitimate business processes do not require accessing this dummy file, any open or read activity immediately alerts security analysts to suspicious or unauthorized internal reconnaissance.

1
Analyze the scenario details
The administrator deployed a single dummy file with alerting configured to detect unauthorized file access.
Deception controls utilize decoy assets within an environment to lure unauthorized actors and provide early warning of an intrusion.
2
Identify the deception technology category
A fake file used as a decoy to catch unauthorized users accessing sensitive storage locations is defined as a honeyfile.
Honeyfiles specifically monitor file shares and data repositories for unauthorized reads or copies.
