I always thought routing tables were the least important in these cases.

Wait, are we really prioritizing memory over network data? Seems off.

I might be mixing things up, but wasn't there something about the current routing table being crucial in some scenarios? It feels like it could be important.

I feel like the running services could give us a lot of insight into what's happening. But I can't remember if that's the first thing we should look at.

I'm not so sure about that. I remember a practice question where we focused on network connections first. Maybe that's important too?

I think we should collect the contents of physical memory first, right? It seems like the most volatile data.

Hmm, I'm not totally confident on this. I was thinking maybe the current routing table (C) would be a good place to start, but now I'm second-guessing that. I'll have to review my notes on incident response procedures to make sure I get this right.

Easy peasy! The answer is clearly B - the contents of physical memory. That's the first and most important thing to capture in a suspected system compromise. Can't go wrong with that one.

I'm a bit unsure on this one. I'm torn between A and B. Collecting the network connections and open ports could be really helpful, but the contents of physical memory might be even more important to preserve. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I think I'll go with B - the contents of physical memory. That seems like the most critical data to collect first before anything else gets changed or tampered with.

I'm a bit confused by the part about exceptions being resolved on the same page. I'll need to think through how that might affect the number of times the 'Email Customer' sub-page is executed.

C) The current routing table, for sure. You need to know where the traffic is going to track down the attacker's movements.
