016.06.22.5. Given Telnet's vulnerability to eavesdropping due to its lack of encryption, how would you justify its use in a modern IT environment, and what precautions would you take to mitigate security risks?
Telnet is still used in older Legacy systems where new protocols could not be installed. Using Digital Certificate Manager we create a Certificate Authority to mitigate security risks.
In legacy systems where new protocols are not feasible, Telnet may still be used despite its vulnerability to be eavesdropping. To mitigate security risks, a Digital Certificate Manager can be employed to establish a Certificate Authority.
