Which condition describes the potential threat created by Instant On in a data center?

  • when the primary IPS appliance is malfunctioning
  • when the primary firewall in the data center crashes
  • when a VM that may have outdated security policies is brought online after a long period of inactivity
  • when an attacker hijacks a VM hypervisor and then launches attacks against other devices in the data center
    Answers Explanation & Hints:

    The phrase Instant On describes a potential threat to a VM when it is brought online after it has not been used for a period of time. Because it is offline for a while, it may have outdated security policies that deviate from the baseline security and can introduce security vulnerabilities.
