0Which of the following is not a major concern related to downtime caused by patching and system updates?
Answer Options
A
Attackers compromising the system or service while it is offline
B
Security systems or functions being offline during restart or shutdown processes
C
Unexpected extended downtime
D
Dependencies between systems or services related to downtime
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
Attackers are unlikely to be able to compromise a system or service while it is offline. They may, however, be able to take advantage of the restart or shutdown process if critical security processes are not online for some portion of the process. Unexpected downtime and dependencies between systems must also be considered when planning patching and system updates.
