The correct answer is C because the signature FF D8 FF E0 is a well-known JPEG file header, and FF D9 is the standard JPEG end-of-image marker. In forensic file analysis, CHFI v11 expects candidates to understand file signatures and identify common file formats from hexadecimal headers and trailers, especially when working with carved fragments from unallocated space. The second signature in the question, 42 4D, identifies a BMP file because those bytes correspond to the Bitmap header. This contrast helps confirm that the first fragment is the JPEG one. Recognizing these signatures is important when file extensions are missing, corrupted, or intentionally changed to mislead investigators. JPEG files are especially common in photo evidence, email attachments, web artifacts, and recovered user content, so being able to identify them from raw hex data is a practical forensic skill. In CHFI-style questions, when the fragment begins with FF D8 FF E0 and closes with FF D9, the correct file type is JPEG. That answer aligns directly with the blueprint objective on image file analysis and hexadecimal file identification.
