You currently cannot provide for 24/7 coverage of your security monitoring and incident response duties...

Explanation:

Contracting with a managed security service provider (MSSP) offers 24/7 monitoring and incident detection capabilities without adding full-time staff.

Current staff can remain on-call for critical incident response, ensuring coverage without increasing headcount.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A. Deploy a SEIM solution: While useful, a SEIM requires constant monitoring to be effective. Simply reviewing incidents in the morning is insufficient.

C. Configure syslog to send SMS messages: This approach lacks comprehensive monitoring and is reactive rather than proactive.

D. Employ an assumption of breach protocol: This does not address the need for consistent monitoring and is not a direct solution to coverage gaps.

EC-Council CISO Reference:The program highlights the value of MSSPs in enhancing organizational security capabilities while managing costs.
