A recent audit has revealed weaknesses in the process of deploying new servers and network devices. Which
of the following practices could be used to increase the security posture during deployment? (Choose two.)

A.
Deploy a honeypot

B.
Disable unnecessary services

C.
Change default passwords

D.
Implement an application firewall

E.
Penetration testing

Explanation:
Increasing security posture is akin to getting the appropriate type of risk mitigation for your company. A plan
and its implementation is a major part of security posture. When new servers and network devices are being
deployed your most vulnerable points will be coming from all unnecessary services that may be running from
servers and network default passwords. Thus, your plan should be to disable those services that are not
needed and change the default password during the deployment of the new servers and network devices.
