CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-002) — Question 212

Which of the following factors would a penetration tester MOST likely consider when testing at a location?

Answer options

• A. Determine if visas are required.
• B. Ensure all testers can access all sites.
• C. Verify the tools being used are legal for use at all sites.
• D. Establish the time of the day when a test can occur.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because it's crucial for penetration testers to ensure that the tools they are using comply with local laws and regulations. Options A and B are less relevant to the testing process itself, and D, while important for logistics, does not pertain to the legality of the tools being used.
