CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 409

The security manager reports that individual systems involved in policy or security violations or incidents cannot be located quickly. The security manager notices the hostnames all appear to be randomly generated characters. Which of the following would BEST assist the security manager identifying systems involved in security incidents?

Answer options

• A. Enforce port security to require system authentication
• B. Implement a standardized UNC
• C. Label existing systems with current hostnames
• D. Forward the DHCP logs to the security manager every day

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Implementing a standardized UNC would provide a consistent naming convention that makes it easier to identify and locate systems involved in security incidents. The other options, while potentially useful, do not address the issue of identifying systems through their hostnames as effectively as a standardized UNC would.
