Selected Answer: A
When configuring a vulnerability management solution to scan Linux servers, a read-only user account is ideal to minimize potential disruptions. This type of account: Allows the scanner to access necessary system information (e.g., configuration files, installed packages) without modifying anything. Reduces the risk of causing unintentional changes or disruptions to the system. Provides sufficient privileges for vulnerability scanning without granting excessive access.
