I thought it would be SYN/ACK, interesting!

I thought OPEN ports send RST for ACK scans, but I keep mixing it up with how closed ports respond.

If I recall correctly, an OPEN port responds with SYN/ACK, but that might be for a different type of scan.

I practiced a similar question, and I believe OPEN ports actually don't reply at all, so maybe it's No Reply?

I think an OPEN port should return RST, but I'm not completely sure. I remember something about how ACK scans work.

Hmm, I'm not sure if enabling just-in-time (JIT) VM access would prevent new user sessions to Host1 without disconnecting active sessions. I'll need to double-check the details on how JIT VM access works.

I believe it's definitely "Risk management." It encompasses assessing and developing plans, which fits the description.

Wait, is the "Security" log the right one? I'm a bit confused about which log would show server reboots. Let me double-check that.
