Using it as a launching point makes sense for deeper access.

Wait, are we really saying no system can be protected? That sounds extreme.

I lean towards option D since showing outdated equipment can lead to better security investments, but I wonder if that’s the primary goal of a DoS attack in this context.

I think option C makes sense because identifying weak points is crucial for improving security, but I also recall that DoS attacks can show how resilient a system is.

I remember discussing how DoS attacks can reveal vulnerabilities, but I'm not sure if it's mainly about listing weak points or demonstrating outdated equipment.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like option B is a bit misleading. It’s not that no system can be protected, but rather to highlight the importance of having defenses in place.

TLS or DTLS seem like the most secure options here. I'll eliminate the other choices and focus on those two.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know communication with stakeholders is important, but I'm not sure which theme specifically addresses that. I'll have to give it some more thought.

I'm struggling here. Is this testing the detail of AML controls or the broader governance approach? These look so similar...
