Nope, I think it could be A, shoulder surfing is sneaky too!

I don't recall much about reconnaissance in this context, but it seems like it wouldn't fit. B feels like the best choice here.

I'm a bit confused. I thought shoulder surfing was related to observing someone enter their password, not file comparisons.

This is a good question to test our understanding of security concepts. I'm pretty sure the answer is B - file integrity auditing, since that's the process of verifying the hashes of system files to detect any changes or tampering.

Okay, let me think this through. We're looking for the process of comparing cryptographic hashes of system files, right? That sounds like it would be file integrity auditing to me. I'll go with B.

This one seems pretty straightforward. I think the answer is Configuration Management, since that's the process that would ensure up-to-date information on known errors and corrected problems is available.

File integrity auditing, huh? I bet the hackers use 'File Integrity Undermining' to keep us on our toes. Gotta stay one step ahead of those digital troublemakers!

Spoofing? What, like pretending to be someone else's computer? Nope, this is definitely about checking your own files, not impersonating others.

Reconnaissance? Nah, that's more about gathering information about a target, not verifying file integrity. Gotta be option B.
