Which server's log should you check to see if the NOC is receiving C2 messages from a BFT1 type 1 platform?

• A. SECRET EMAIL
• B. NOC_LOG
• C. C2_SYS
• D. SECRET SATCOM

Answer: (D)

Focus on the transmission path for those C2 messages. If a BFT1 type 1 platform communicates via satellite, the C2 traffic would travel through the SATCOM channel, so the best place to verify that the NOC is receiving those messages is the log on the SATCOM server. The SECRET SATCOM log will record inbound and outbound C2 traffic, timestamps, and other metadata that confirms receipt by the NOC. In contrast, SECRET EMAIL would only show email-based communication, which isn’t the typical channel for C2 in this scenario. NOC_LOG might capture general operational events but isn’t specialized to the C2 transit channel. C2_SYS sounds like an internal component rather than the dedicated channel’s log. So the SATCOM log is the most direct evidence that the NOC is receiving C2 messages from that platform.
