Selected Answer: C
Anti-phishing training is the best way to protect against whaling attacks. This training teaches employees how to identify and avoid phishing emails. It also teaches them how to respond if they receive a phishing email. This is a SY0-601 question.

Selected Answer: C
Whaling is a highly targeted phishing attack - aimed at senior executives - masquerading as a legitimate email. Whaling is digitally enabled fraud through social engineering, designed to encourage victims to perform a secondary action, such as initiating a wire transfer of funds

just my opinion, but wouldn't it be safer to set up the firewall first then give the training,, better to be protected first,, then train to keep the protection up and running. .hope everyone does well on here,, cheers.

in the context of the question. firewall will not do anything against whaling attacks. these type of attack is a form of social engineering where victims, usually company executives, are tricked into giving up sensitive information. training is most effective in this scenario.
