Which tools are used by VMOs to provide remediation capabilities to vulnerabilities on the AFNet?

• A. MECM and ARAD
• B. Wireshark
• C. COOP
• D. DSO

Answer: (A)

Remediation across AFNet relies on coordinated patch management and automated remediation workflows. Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM) handles the rollout of security patches, OS updates, and configuration changes across Windows endpoints, enforcing compliance baselines and providing deployment status and reports. ARAD complements MECM by delivering vulnerability remediation capabilities—it ingests scan results, supports automated remediation actions or guided remediation steps, and tracks progress to verify that vulnerabilities are closed. Together, MECM and ARAD give VMOs the tools to discover, remediate, and verify vulnerabilities network-wide. Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer and not a remediation tool, COOP focuses on continuity planning, and DSO is not the remediation platform used for AFNet vulnerabilities, so they don’t fit this role.
