CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 671
Security software was accidentally uninstalled from all servers in the environment. After requesting the same version of the software be reinstalled, the security analyst learns that a change request will need to be filled out. Which of the following is the BEST reason to follow the change management process in this scenario?
Answer options
- A. Owners can be notified a change is being made and can monitor it for performance impact.
- B. A risk assessment can be performed to determine if the software is needed.
- C. End users can be aware of the scope of the change.
- D. A rollback plan can be implemented in case the software breaks an application.
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D because having a rollback plan ensures that if the reinstallation of the software causes issues, there is a strategy to revert to the previous state. While the other options provide valuable insights into the change process, they do not focus on the critical aspect of mitigating immediate risks associated with software changes.
