Option A? More like a 'zero-brain-cell' attack, am I right? Come on, everyone knows a zero-day is all about the unknown vulnerabilities!

D) Definitely not a 'zero-brain-cell' attack, it's actually quite sophisticated.

Definitely Option B. A zero-day attack is like a ninja - it strikes when you least expect it. Gotta stay on your toes!

Haha, Option C is just silly. An attack that deploys at the end of a countdown sequence? What is this, a James Bond movie?

User 1: I think Option B is the correct answer. It's when attackers use a vulnerability unknown to the software developer.

I'm going with Option D. The ultimate timing - launching the attack the same day the patch is released. Good luck fixing that one!

Option B sounds about right. A zero-day attack exploits a vulnerability that even the software developers are unaware of. Sneaky!
