HTTP seems more related to web protocols, so I doubt it would help with security. I’m leaning towards the firewall option.

Okay, let's see. FTP and HTTP are protocols, not security measures. Gopher is an outdated internet protocol, so that's not the answer either. I'm pretty confident the right choice is C - Firewall.
