I always thought DACLs were more complex than just listing users and permissions.

A and B are totally off base. DACLs are about permissions, not IPs or events.

D is definitely not true, DACLs don't have an entry for every permission.

I’m uncertain about this one. I thought DACLs were more about auditing, but that might be a different concept altogether.

I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this before, and I think it was about permissions too. C sounds right, but I could be wrong.

I remember studying that DACLs specifically list users and groups, so C seems correct, but I might be mixing it up with something else.

I think DACLs are all about permissions, so I’m leaning towards option C, but I’m not completely sure.

I wonder if the DACL stands for 'Definitely A Confusing List'.
