Wk 2 - Apply: Summative Assessment: Lab Reflection

After completing this week’s labs, reflect on what you learned and respond to the following questions in 1 to 2 pages:

• Compare and contrast the vulnerability scanning tools you used in the labs. Are there scenarios in which a scanning tool would be advantageous to use over others?
• When assessing the security risks of a network, a step that is important but sometimes overlooked is the gathering of organizational data. How can knowledge of organizational data give you leverage over network vulnerabilities? Name two types of organizational data and explain how a hacker might be able to exploit them.

Cite sources to support your assignment. 

Format your citations according to APA guidelines.
