What is the best way to secure the most vulnerable attack vector for a network?

Choices:

A] Remove unneeded services running on the servers
B] Provide end-user awareness training for office staff
C] Update all antivirus definitions on workstations and servers
D] Use biometrics and SSO for authentication

Hey First Question - Thanks Scott

My first instinct D]Use biometrics and SSO for Authentication

The key words in the question is "most vulnerable attack vector" so IMHO, D] would incorrect.

Well People would be the most vulnerable

so B?

Correct, B. @scottalanmiller will have to confirm though.

I thought that too, but then I thought that was too easy and that he probably was meaning something else .

I get that. There are actually many of those on the practice tests. Just when you think, "Nah, that can't be right..." Occam's razor strikes again.

i took one of the professor messer Take ten challenges, and im not happy with the results. Guess I need to rethink how i'm studying..

I probably should have started my own thread about this.

From Here we see some people have a different opinion, so lets discuss that outside of a public thread -

Currently I'm looking into Azure Fundamentals through Microsoft learn (we're slow in the office at the moment so - Bettering myself.)
@Dashrender suggests looking into 0365 management for SMB
While others (@Obsolesce ) is suggesting Azure is the place to start .

Let's discuss.

We're pretty low call volume at the office today - so I'm Looking into Azure Fundamentals

Boy that's jumping straight into the deep end...
why not start with something like - admining O365 for SMB?

Wtf? No it's not. That's probably the best move he can make, or a similar path for AWS.

You're right - it won't be useful to him at his current job at all, but to get the hell out of it it could be great.

On the otherhand, I could see his current company could look to support O365 for clients, and their chances of using Azure stuff (other than AD of course) is likely very low.

Let's take the discussion to the thread -

Working from home the rest of the day and using up my remaining PTO for the rest of this week and all of next week - Quality time with the kiddo, as well as personal development.

an actual email on our Aloha Reseller Forum :

..."XP BAD.... Burn with Fire.. "

They're not wrong.

XP was a decent Microsoft OS back in the day, but we're talking 2001 here.

Oh I agree, I just thought it was funny how they said it, lol .
we actually had an existing customer bring his own equipment he bought from another restaurant that went out of business in for us to "make work"

All of them are XP devices. so I called him and said "I have the perfect solution.. Come pick them up, and buy these instead" and gave him a quote for new terminals with windows 10. I refuse to install Windows XP and my bosses agree with me.

I'll service XP but only for the customers that still have it.. everytime I do I tell them it's time to upgrade. and we don't support this System anymore.. I've suggested we fire them as customers, but my bosses dont want to lose their monthly Payment.

Can finally breathe- Been running around like crazy the last 2 days .
trying to take a half a day on friday but we'll see - For now coffee and email purge.

Happy Humpday folks.

I'm going straight to head banging at metal band rehearsal at 5! But I still have to sit down while I'm playing guitar, my balance is nowhere near 100%.

That's Awesome

Started today with 39 hours already punched in for the week.
I'm extremely tired and ready to be done for the weekend.

Beer thirty cant get here fast enough

is it just me or does the use of emoji's in professional emails annoy anyone else ?

Dude - I detest emoji's almost ANYWHERE!

Well, I mean, in a text message that's fine. but in a professional email where everyone is talking about issues, you're using emojis, I will never take you seriously as a professional.

User called " this tablet isn't working. just randomly stopped working."
so I connected into the Unifi Controller (this is one of the sites I set up..)
Ap is online.

Reboot the tablet - User: " hey it's on airplane mode."
me: "thatd be why it's not working."
User: "these kids do this shit on purpose to annoy me."

patiently waiting for the "hey we know that March madness is going on right now, and we forgot to get these Drink Specials programmed for this weekend.. " calls to start rolling in with the games starting at 11:15am CST.

We're pretty slow today - finalizing an install for Monday overnight.

grabbed another coffee, ready to go home.

Uriah Hall and Chris Weidman

Holyshit, here I thought the guy was the kicker breaking his ankle etc. Here it just snapped under his own force....

And Weidman didn't know it had snapped until he put his foot down...

Flash back to Andersen Silva doing the same thing..

And here we are for Round 2 at the location.

It's been a few months now, which certs have you gotten recently?

It has been, and I've been studying for network+ still, just finished the last chapter in the book and taking the practice tests.
I have other priorities to attend to, so I study when I can.

I've come to expect little from my vendors.

I'm learning this. I was here until 6:30 pm last night and found out that it was a file they had me push to the payment devices a week ago that broke it this week.. cause this was the hard end date for this URL...

another morning of Checking weather.gov for the forecast before going to the local new station for weather ..

Dew Point is 64 F today ( which means it's gonna be sticky humid once the rain dies down, if it dies down at all..)

Coffee and working on calls - thankfully I'm not alone today like I was yesterday

I absolutely despise Credit Card Payment device companies with a passion...
