Which Meterpreter command shows the system name and OS type of the compromised machine?

• A. reg
• B. sysinfo
• C. shutdown
• D. reboot

Answer: (B)

sysinfo pulls up the target machine’s basic system details, including the operating system type and the computer name. In a Meterpreter session, this command is designed to quickly reveal what OS is running on the compromised host and the hostname, which helps you tailor further actions and validate the foothold.

The other actions don’t fit this purpose. Reading from the registry is useful for probing specific configuration keys, but it doesn’t provide a clean summary of the OS and host name. The shutdown and reboot commands change the state of the machine rather than report its information.
