CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-002) — Question 453

A penetration tester has been hired to perform a physical penetration test to gain access to a secure room within a client's building. Exterior reconnaissance identifies two entrances, a WiFi guest network, and multiple security cameras connected to the Internet.
Which of the following tools or techniques would BEST support additional reconnaissance?

Answer options

• A. Wardriving
• B. Shodan
• C. Recon-ng
• D. Aircrack-ng

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Shodan is the most suitable tool for further reconnaissance as it allows the tester to search for and analyze Internet-connected devices, including security cameras. Wardriving and Aircrack-ng are more focused on WiFi network assessment rather than broader reconnaissance. Recon-ng is a valuable tool but does not specifically target Internet-connected devices like Shodan does.
