Wait, can Nikto really find all those issues? Sounds too good to be true!

Definitely Nikto, it’s designed for web server audits.

I thought Metasploit was more for exploitation, not scanning.

Nmap is great too, but not really for misconfigurations.

Pretty sure he's using Nikto for that scan.

Armitage is a GUI for Metasploit, so I don't think that's the right choice either. It has to be Nikto, right?

I practiced a similar question, and I believe Metasploit is more focused on exploitation rather than just scanning for issues.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember Nmap is more for network scanning, not just web vulnerabilities.

I think Gavin might be using Nikto since it specifically scans for web server vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to make sure I understand the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint RBAC model and how the different user roles map to the required permissions.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we need to set up some kind of automated report, but I'm not sure if I should use Automation Studio or Email Studio. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I've seen questions like this before, so I think I've got a good handle on it. I'll quickly review the options and go with the one that most clearly depicts the many-to-one relationship between students and lecturers.
