Selected Answer: A
A. Probe the IPC share by attempting to brute-force admin credentials Inter-Process Communication (IPC) shares are used for data exchange between processes and can be a common target for enumeration in Windows environments. If misconfigured, IPC shares can leak sensitive information, such as usernames, service accounts, or even password hashes. Brute-forcing admin credentials against the IPC share is a logical step to see if weak or default credentials can be exploited for further access.
