CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-004) — Question 319

Which of the following is a risk associated with SDN?

Answer options

• A. Expanded attack surface
• B. Increased hardware management cots
• C. Reduced visibility of scaling capabilities
• D. New firmware vulnerabilities

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as SDN can indeed lead to a larger attack surface due to its centralized control, making it more susceptible to various cyber threats. Options B and C are incorrect because they do not directly relate to the inherent risks of SDN; option D, while a concern, is more specific to firmware and not a general risk of SDN.
