State-sponsored? Nah, he's just a lone wolf looking to cash in.

I think he could also be seen as an insider threat if he has access.

Definitely organized hackers, they operate for profit.

Organized hackers sounds right, but I wonder if there’s a chance he could be considered an industrial spy if he’s targeting specific companies for their data.

I practiced a question like this before, and I think insider threats are more about employees misusing their access, which doesn’t seem to apply here.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about state-sponsored hackers being more about espionage for governments, not just profit.

I think Daniel fits the profile of organized hackers since he’s doing it for profit and selling data on the black market.

This is a good one. I'm pretty confident I can figure this out by thinking through the purpose of the VPN tunnels and the monitoring requirements for the VoIP traffic. I'll make sure to read the question and options carefully.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the report should include key details, but I'm not sure which of these would be unnecessary. I'll have to think it through carefully.

Using BigQuery UPDATE to reduce the dataset size? I'm not sure that's the best approach here. Seems like it could cause more issues than it solves. I'd focus on the denormalization and append strategies.
