A county launches a new public permitting portal and wants to catch misuse quickly after go-live. Which mitigation pairs best with the new exposure?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A brand-new public front door needs eyes on it from day one—like putting cameras up the same night you unlock a new store. Monitoring and alerts turn weird logins and traffic into early warnings instead of quiet surprises. Skipping logs just because the site is new is asking for blind spots.
Full Explanation
Enterprise mitigation techniques include monitoring so newly exposed services are watched for malicious activity as soon as they are reachable. Pairing a public portal launch with authentication and traffic monitoring improves detection of credential abuse, scraping, and anomalous use. Disabling logging, removing the service from the Internet entirely, or sharing admin credentials undermine detection and least privilege rather than mitigating residual risk after launch.
