Question 29/178

A security analyst is conducting a vulnerability assessment of a company's online store. The analyst discovers a critical vulnerability in the payment processing system that could be exploited, allowing attackers to steal customer payment information. Which of the following should the analyst do next?

A. Leave the vulnerability unpatched until the next scheduled maintenance window to avoid potential disruption to business.

B. Perform a risk assessment to evaluate the potential impact of the vulnerability and determine whether additional security measures are needed.

C. Ignore the vulnerability since the company recently passed a payment system compliance audit.

D. Isolate the payment processing system from production and schedule for reimaging.

Correct Answer: B

* When a critical vulnerability is identified, the immediate next step should be to assess the risk associated with the vulnerability.
* Risk assessment (Option B) helps determine the severity, exploitability, and business impact before deciding on mitigation measures.
* Option A (delaying the fix) is dangerous because payment data theft can have severe consequences, including regulatory penalties and reputational damage.
* Option C (ignoring the vulnerability) is incorrect because passing a compliance audit does not mean the system is secure.
* Option D (isolating and reimaging) is an extreme measure that might not be necessary unless active exploitation is detected.
