A is just wrong, that’s not what social engineering means!

I thought social engineering was more about psychology, but I'm confused about the options. D seems off, but I can't fully recall the details.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think C is definitely the right choice since it focuses on human interaction rather than hacking.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like A doesn't really fit because it's about disclosing info, not getting it.

I remember studying social engineering, and I think it has to do with manipulating people to get information, so maybe it's C?

I'm leaning towards B - it seems like Finesse only supports the same type and configuration of gadgets for all users. That would make the most sense to me.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know the auditor's report covers the financial statements, but I'm not sure about the specific contents. I'll have to review my notes and try to eliminate the options that don't seem right.

Okay, let's see. The mined currency being associated with a user token seems like a clear indicator of a cryptominer attack, so I'll definitely choose that one.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the options. I want to make sure I fully understand what each one is asking before I select my answers. I'll need to read through them a couple of times.
