-
A
Launching executable files and scripts that attempt to download or run files.
-
B
Software updates and patches.
-
C
Running obfuscated or otherwise suspicious scripts.
-
D

Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: B
A. Launching executable files and scripts that attempt to download or run files is a software behavior related to Attack Surface Reduction. By preventing the execution of potentially harmful scripts or files, the attack surface is reduced, making it harder for attackers to exploit vulnerabilities.
B.
Software updates and patches are not software behaviors related to Attack Surface Reduction. While keeping software up to date is crucial for security, it is not specifically related to reducing the attack surface.
C. Running obfuscated or otherwise suspicious scripts is a software behavior related to Attack Surface Reduction. By identifying and blocking suspicious scripts, the attack surface is reduced, minimizing the risk of potential security breaches.
D. App behaviors that don't usually occur during everyday day-to-day work are software behaviors related to Attack Surface Reduction. By monitoring and restricting unusual app behaviors, the attack surface can be reduced, making it more difficult for attackers to exploit vulnerabilities.
