Certified Ethical Hacker Version 11 (CEHv11) Practice Test

Which tool would you use to obtain system information such as host name and uptime?

PsInfo PsLoggedOn PsList PsShutdown

Correct Answer:

PsInfo

Explanation:

To quickly gather basic system details like the host name and how long the system has been running, PsInfo is the right choice. This Sysinternals tool is designed to query a machine and display essential system information, including the host name, uptime, OS version, and other details, either locally or on a remote computer. The other tools in the Ps family serve different purposes—PsLoggedOn shows who’s logged on, PsList lists processes, and PsShutdown handles shutdown/reboot actions—so they wouldn’t provide a straightforward view of host name and uptime.
