Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

On Debian- and Ubuntu-based systems, ModSecurity for Apache is installed using the package libapache2-mod-security2. The correct command to install this package is sudo apt install libapache2-mod-security2 -y, where the -y flag automatically confirms installation prompts. The other options include invalid flags that are not recognized by the package manager and would result in command failure. Installing ModSecurity during the Operate and Monitor stage provides an additional layer of defense by inspecting incoming HTTP requests and blocking malicious traffic such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and protocol violations. A Web Application Firewall helps protect deployed applications from common attack vectors and supports defense-in-depth strategies in production environments.

I vaguely recall that the command should include "libapache2-mod-security2," but I’m not confident about the suffix.
