I’m a bit confused about the options. Is a Virtual Environment always a trap, or can it be something else?

I think a Virtual Environment is like a Honeypot that traps hackers, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only definition.
IL
Iluminada 10 months ago
Ah, I see now. A virtual environment is a controlled environment set up to trap hackers, so option A must be the right answer.
LI
