A company is in the process of implementing a vulnerability scanning program to improve its cyber defenses. The company wants to know which scanning method (agent or agentless) would most effectively identify vulnerabilities on its network. What are the advantages of implementing agent-based compared to agentless in this context? (Select the three best options.)A.Agent-based scanning, unlike agentless, provides detailed and accurate information through direct access to system resources.B.Agent-based scanning, compared to agentless, provides continuous and real-time monitoring due to its host presence.C.Agent-based scanning operates independently of network connectivity, unlike agentless scanning, which requires a stable network connection.D.Agent-based scanning focuses on individual host vulnerabilities, while agentless scanning provides a broad network view.

An IT professional is responsible for implementing vulnerability scanning methods for their organization's network. The organization has tasked the IT professional with deciding whether to use an agent-based or agentless vulnerability scanning method. What factors should the IT professional consider when making this decision? (Select the two best options.)A.The security clearance of the personnel conducting the scanB.The geographic location of the network being scannedC.The size of the network being scannedD.The presence of network firewalls
