D is definitely the way to go! You need to know what you're protecting.

I’m a bit confused because I thought immediate protection was key, but I guess assessing first could help in the long run. Still, I’m not sure if D is the best answer.

I’m not entirely sure, but deploying agents everywhere sounds risky. I feel like we should prioritize critical assets first, which points to D again.

I remember a practice question that emphasized the importance of understanding your assets first. That makes me think D is definitely the right choice.

I think the first step should be to assess the environment before deploying anything, so I’m leaning towards option D.
