ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity — Question 23

Which of the hacking methodology steps can be used to identify the applications and vendors used?

Answer options

• A. Enumeration
• B. OSINT
• C. Scanning
• D. Surveillance

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Enumeration is the correct answer because it involves actively gathering information about applications and services to identify their versions and vendors. OSINT, while useful for gathering publicly available information, does not directly involve identifying applications. Scanning focuses on discovering live hosts and services but does not provide detailed application insights, and Surveillance typically refers to monitoring activities rather than directly identifying software.
