Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) logs provide visibility into network traffic patterns and can help detect insecure or unusual connections. These logs will show if non-secure protocols are used, potentially revealing exposed credentials. According to CompTIA CySA+, IDS logs are essential for identifying malicious activity related to communications and network intrusions. Options like DNS (A) and tcpdump (B) provide network details, but IDS specifically monitors for intrusions and unusual activities relevant to security incidents.

What a nightmare! I'd be banging my head against the wall if I had to deal with these vendor appliances. Proprietary systems, for sure.

Lack of maintenance windows? More like lack of vendor cooperation! These systems are a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.

Haha, unsupported operating systems? More like 'unsupported vendor' if you ask me. Those appliances are holding the company hostage!

I'd go with Legacy systems. Sounds like these critical systems are running outdated software that the company can't easily update.

Proprietary systems, definitely. Those vendor appliances are a real pain to deal with. No control over the updates or upgrades.

That makes sense, but I still think it's A) Proprietary systems because the company doesn't have access to make changes.

I disagree, I believe it's B) Legacy systems because the vendor appliance is old and cannot be upgraded.
