Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator (CHFI) — Question 1

When examining the log files from a Windows IIS Web Server, how often is a new log file created?

Answer options

• A. the same log is used at all times
• B. a new log file is created everyday
• C. a new log file is created each week
• D. a new log is created each time the Web Server is started

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because Windows IIS Web Server generates a new log file every day, allowing for easier management and analysis of logs. Option A is incorrect as the log files are rotated daily, not kept the same. Options C and D are also incorrect because log files are not created weekly or only upon server startup.
