Which Security Profile type will prevent this attack?
To protect against external hosts attempting to exploit a flaw in an operating system on an internal system, the appropriate Security Profile type to use is Vulnerability Protection. This profile is specifically designed to detect and prevent the exploitation of known vulnerabilities in software and operating systems, making it suitable for mitigating attacks targeting such flaws.
