Significant benefits can sometimes outweigh alignment issues.

Option D makes sense, exceptions can be useful if justified.

Surprised this is even a question! Non-alignment should be a hard no.

I disagree, we shouldn't just change our strategy for one tech.

Updating the IT strategy seems like the best move.

Updating the IT strategy seems like it could lead to more flexibility, but I wonder if it might cause confusion in the long run.

I think we practiced a question similar to this where we had to weigh the benefits against the risks of changing the strategy.

I remember discussing how aligning IT strategy with new technologies can sometimes be beneficial, but I'm not sure if it's always the best move.

I feel like rejecting based on non-alignment could be too rigid, but I'm uncertain if the architecture exception process is the right approach either.

Okay, let's see... I know iPXE is related to network booting, so it's probably IPv4 and TFTP.

This is a tricky one. I know Certificate-based VPNs are more secure, but I'm not sure if that applies across different vendors. I'll make sure to read the question thoroughly and consider all the options before answering.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know there are different types of permissions, but I'm not sure I can confidently identify the two correct options here. I'll have to think it through.

I did practice some questions on this, and I feel like the answer might lean towards 1962, but it could also be 1955.
