A team is analyzing a site that uses a perimeter module to hide its actual system address. Which technique uncovers the real network location the perimeter module is masking?
Inspecting older certificate records for references to the true asset
Scanning the site's HTML files for comments containing host addresses
Applying a random security assessment tool on the external domain
Reviewing a config file for instructions on asset addresses
Archived certificate logs can hold earlier domain details that point to actual addresses. The site's code might not contain a direct reference to the server IP. A third-party vulnerability scan does not typically expose hidden addresses. Reviewing a configuration file does not guarantee visibility into the true system IP.
