I keep mixing up the definitions, but I think anything involving manipulation or theft is cyber-crime, so B seems like the best choice.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I feel like option D definitely involves cyber-crime, but I can't recall if B is the odd one out.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about fraud being a type of cyber-crime, so maybe it's not A?

I think option B is the right answer since firing an employee doesn't really involve cyber-crime.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know NIST SP 800-61 r2 is the incident response guide, but I can't quite recall all the specific elements it covers. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm a bit confused by the options here. Some of them seem very specific, like the SAML token propagation. I'll need to review my notes on OSB security to make sure I select the right three.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. I'd focus on options B and D - communicating the value achieved and targeting executive priorities are key when talking to the C-suite.

Firing an employee? That's like getting fired for eating the last donut in the break room. Not very cyber-criminal if you ask me.

Fraud by manipulating computer records? Yup, that's a classic cyber-crime. I bet the hackers are rubbing their hands together just thinking about it.

Software piracy? That's like stealing the digital equivalent of a car. Definitely a cyber-crime in my book.

I believe A) Fraud achieved by the manipulation of the computer records is a cyber-crime because it involves manipulating digital data for fraudulent purposes.
