Wait, are IDS systems really unable to decrypt it? Sounds too good to be true.

I vaguely remember something about how encryption protects data in transit, but I don't know if that relates directly to the question.

I feel like option D makes sense too, since IDS systems can't decrypt encrypted traffic, but I can't recall the specifics.

I remember practicing a question about how encryption can slow down IDS response times, so I might lean towards option C.

I think the main advantage is that it helps to evade detection by IDS systems, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right choice.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I'll have to review my notes on vertical marketing systems to decide.

The key here is to identify the most efficient and flexible design to handle all the requested functionality. I'm leaning towards option B, but I'll double-check the details to be sure.
