Hardening the operating system refers to all of the following except:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Removing antimalware agents. Hardening the operating system means making it more secure. Limiting administrator access, closing unused ports, and removing unnecessary services and libraries all have the potential to make an OS more secure. But removing antimalware agents would actually make the system less secure. If anything, antimalware agents should be added, not removed.

I feel like all the options except C are about enhancing security. I just hope I remember this correctly during the exam!

I practiced a similar question, and I think the answer is C. Hardening should keep security measures like antimalware in place, right?

I think removing unnecessary services is part of hardening, but I can't recall if removing antimalware is ever a good idea.

I remember hardening involves limiting access and closing ports, but I'm not sure about removing antimalware agents. That seems counterproductive.

I think I know the answer, but I want to double-check my understanding before selecting it. The voucher handling scheme seems to fit the description best.

Okay, let's see. The question is asking for the reason that is NOT a cause for the necessary amounts of insurance to change. I think I can eliminate a few options here.

Multi-step publishing usually means Launches in AEM. I'm almost certain that's the best approach for simplifying this workflow.
