Having just spend ten minutes working on an increasingly incoherent analysis of the issue (that exam question is like Alice in Wonderland if you think about it too much), I had to stop when considering what "file access" actually <i>means</i>. Google doesn't find a reasonable definition.<br>
<br>Does 'file access' mean opening a file (and then maybe viewing/editing its contents) or can it also mean <i>copying</i> a file (without opening it)?<br><br>As for the antivirus event logger, I bet it would only log infection detection events, not all system file events. Can you imagine what would happen to system performance if <i>every</i> file opening were logged by Symantec?<br>
<br>An audit trail, however <i>would</i> log every system file event. It's the only answer that makes sense to me, but it wasn't one of the options.<br><br>This question is really bugging me, and I suspect it's destined to become a classic.<br>
