CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 313
A server administrator needs to check remotely for unnecessary running services across 12 servers. Which of the following tools should the administrator use?
Answer options
- A. DLP
- B. A port scanner
- C. Anti-malware
- D. A sniffer
Correct answer: B
Explanation
A port scanner is the correct choice as it can identify open ports and services on a server, allowing the administrator to detect unnecessary running services. DLP, anti-malware, and sniffers serve different purposes and do not specifically target the identification of running services on multiple servers.
