Free CompTIA PenTest+ PT0-002 Practice Question

During a penetration test, you are given a strict deadline to complete your tasks. You discover a potentially critical vulnerability that requires extensive testing. What is the BEST course of action to take that aligns most closely with good time management practices?

  • Report the vulnerability as critical without further investigation to save time and complete other tasks within the deadline.

  • Ignore the finding and prioritize other set goals to ensure all planned tests are completed within the deadline.

  • Immediately continue investigating the vulnerability until you fully understand its implications, regardless of the deadline.

  • Document the finding and move on, reporting it to the client with a recommendation for a follow-up if time does not allow for further investigation.
