A company's network team notices significant slowdowns during their regular vulnerability scans on critical servers. Which method could be implemented to mitigate this issue without sacrificing the thoroughness of the scans?
Reduce the scan's depth to lower resource usage.
Disable the scans on critical servers to avoid slowdowns.
Increase the scan frequency to detect vulnerabilities faster.
Scheduling the scans during off-peak hours can significantly reduce the impact on network performance. It allows for thorough scanning when the load on the network and critical servers is minimal, reducing disruptions.
