I feel like I’ve seen a question where firewalls were mentioned as a primary defense, but I’m not 100% confident.

Smart cards and biometric devices seem more about authentication than actually preventing attacks, right?

I think anti-virus programs are definitely meant to prevent malicious attacks, but I'm not entirely sure if they catch everything.

I think the answer is D. Firewalls act as a barrier, monitoring and filtering network traffic to prevent unauthorized access and block malicious programs from infiltrating the system. That seems like the most comprehensive solution compared to the other options.

Biometric devices like fingerprint scanners or facial recognition can help secure access to systems, but I don't think that's the main thing that prevents malicious programs from attacking a system. I'm leaning towards the firewall option.

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure about this one. I know anti-virus programs can help detect and remove malware, but I'm not confident that's the complete answer here. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the answer is D. Firewalls are designed to protect systems from malicious attacks by monitoring and controlling incoming and outgoing network traffic.

Okay, let me break this down step-by-step. The first line moves the file, so I need to consider what that might do. Then the second line tries to delete the source, which could cause an issue.
