Sniffing is super sneaky, but does it really work all the time?

I’m leaning towards option D because it makes sense that attackers would use social engineering to install backdoors, but I could be wrong.

Sniffing seems like it could be a way to gather information, but I feel like it’s more about monitoring traffic than creating a backdoor.

I remember practicing a question similar to this where port scanning was highlighted as a method to find vulnerabilities. That might be relevant here too.

I think backdoors often involve social engineering, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the main technique used here.

I'm pretty confident the answer is B, Canada. I remember learning that Canada has a different data privacy framework than the EU, so they haven't received that adequacy determination yet. Gotta love these tricky data protection questions!

I can't decide between A and D. I think they both seem essential, but I might be leaning towards A because user orientation feels more fundamental.

This seems like a straightforward question about IT governance. I'll focus on understanding the key drivers for change and assessing the current state of IT governance within the organization.
