IP range sweep might give some info, but not as targeted as a port scan.

Totally agree, port scans reveal a lot about open services.

Wait, are we sure a port scan is the best option? Seems too obvious.

I think packet sniffing could work too, but not as effective.

Port scan is definitely the way to go for finding services.

I feel like a session hijack wouldn't really help in this scenario, but I can't recall exactly why.
TH

I remember practicing with similar questions, and I think an IP range sweep is more about finding hosts rather than services.

I'm not entirely sure, but packet sniffing could also provide some useful information about the services being used.
AN

I think a port scan might be the best option here since it can identify open services on a system.

Port scanning is the way to go. That'll give you the most comprehensive information about the services on the target system.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I'll need to review my notes on the kill chain and reconnaissance techniques before deciding.
KI
Kina 1 year ago
A port scan is the obvious choice here. That's the best way to gather information about the services running on the target system.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully before answering.
JU

This one seems pretty straightforward. I'd go with a port scan to find open services on the system.

Okay, let's see. The question is asking which 3 data issues an MDM solution would address. I think data duplication, data accuracy/quality, and data standardization are the top 3 that stand out to me based on the details provided.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. The question mentions that the project is on track and the costs are as budgeted, so I'm not sure why this wouldn't be considered a provision. I'll need to re-read the details carefully.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know SAML is used for single sign-on, but I'm not totally clear on the specifics of how it works with Okta's dashboard.
DE

I've got this one! HIPAA mandates both the renewal of group health policies and the provision of certificates of creditable coverage. So the correct answer is option C, both A and B.
MI

I'm a little confused by this question. I know there are different ribbons in Access, but I'm not sure which one specifically deals with external data. I'll have to review my notes to see if I can figure this out.

Hmm, I'm torn between D) Port scan and B) Packet sniffing. Maybe I'll just ask Micky nicely to share his findings, he seems like a friendly guy.
