I don't think there's less need for linkage with a vendor's system; in fact, it seems like it would be more important to ensure timely deliveries.

I'm pretty confident the answer is C. Just-in-time means less buffer stock, so companies would need to inspect goods more closely as they arrive to ensure quality.

Okay, I've got this. Just-in-time systems aim to minimize inventory, so companies would likely need more frequent deliveries from a smaller number of suppliers. I'll go with option B.

I've got this one! The answer is definitely D. The dispersed nature of the attack, the need to trace back to the masters and originating machine, and the lack of common attributes among the attackers - it all makes tracebacks extremely difficult in a DDoS scenario.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know EFS can be tricky to optimize, but I'm not sure if any of these options are the best approach. I'll need to review my notes on EFS performance tuning to make sure I choose the right answer.
