I remember a practice question that emphasized the independence of internal audit, which makes me think B is definitely the right choice, but I’m not completely sure.

I think the internal audit's main role is more about providing assurance and consulting, so I’m leaning towards B.

Okay, I think I've got this. Option B looks like the right choice, as it uses the toUpperCase() method to convert the input string to uppercase.

I'm pretty sure the Integrated Reporting Framework is focused on more than just financial metrics, so A is definitely not one of the principles. B and E sound like they could be correct, but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I know SMTP is for sending email, but I'm not sure about the other options. I'll have to review my notes on email protocols to make sure I get this one right.
