Maybe the solution is to just disconnect the server from the internet altogether. Then no one can hack it, right? *sarcasm intensifies*

Oh come on, setting it to 10? That's just ridiculous. Who comes up with these answer choices, a bunch of security trolls?

Ha! I knew those security experts couldn't be trusted. You can never really 'prevent' a determined hacker, can you?

How disappointing, I was sure that option A was the correct answer. Guess I need to attend more security seminars to really understand this stuff.

I thought setting Restrict Anonymous to 1 would prevent the null session, but I guess it's not enough. Looks like I need to dig deeper into the security settings.
