While performing ping scans into a target network you get a frantic call from the organization’s security team. They report that they are under a denial of service attack. When you stop your scan, the smurf attack event stops showing up on the organization’s IDS monitor. How can you modify your scan to prevent triggering this event in the IDS?

A.
Scan more slowly.

B.
Do not scan the broadcast IP.

C.
Spoof the source IP address.

D.
Only scan the Windows systems.

Explanation:
Scanning the broadcast address makes the scan target all IP addresses on that subnet at the same time.
