ISA/IEC 62443 Cybersecurity Fundamentals Specialist — Question 69

Which of the following tools has the potential for serious disruption of a control network and should not be used on a live system?

Answer options

• A. Remote desktop
• B. Vulnerability scanner
• C. FTP
• D. Web browser

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as a vulnerability scanner actively probes systems for weaknesses, which can lead to unintended disruptions in a control network. The other options, such as Remote desktop, FTP, and Web browser, do not inherently pose the same level of risk when used properly in a live environment.
