A security consultant notices new methods were introduced to secretly redirect traffic. Which measure brings the environment back to its stable condition while letting business processes continue?
Update system records to show typical connectivity
Use the original baseline in place of the extras and verify normal behavior
Remove lines pointing to the hidden components
Modify the extra items so they remain invisible to administrators
Replacing the newly introduced elements with the original baseline ensures that all hidden routes and configurations are removed. Simply removing references in logs, deleting partial code snippets, or hiding functionality within administrative tools fails to address the core changes or ensure the environment is restored to a known good state.
