CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 191

Several new components have been added to a mission-critical server, and corporate policy states all new components must meet server hardening requirements. Which of the following should be applied?

Answer options

• A. Definition updates
• B. Driver updates
• C. OS security updates
• D. Application updates

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Driver updates are crucial because they ensure that the new hardware components operate correctly and securely within the system's environment. While OS security updates and application updates are important for overall security, they do not directly address the specific requirements for new hardware components. Definition updates are related to antivirus and do not pertain to hardware compatibility.
