CART stands for which of the following?

• A. Computer Analysis and Response Team
• B. Computer Assessment and Response Team
• C. Computer Architecture and Response Team
• D. Computer Analysis and Rapid Team

Answer: (A)

The question tests recognizing what CART stands for in security contexts and what that name implies about the team’s role. CART = Computer Analysis and Response Team. The word “Analysis” points to examining and forensically evaluating what happened—studying logs, artifacts, malware, timelines, and scope of impact. “Response” emphasizes taking action to contain, eradicate the threat, recover operations, and preserve evidence for further investigation. The pairing signals a group that both analyzes incidents and actively responds to them.

The other options don’t fit because they swap or omit key ideas: “Assessment” changes the emphasis to evaluation rather than in-depth investigation; “Architecture” relates to system design rather than incident handling; “Rapid Team” doesn’t convey the analytical forensic aspect essential to CART.
