WEP encryption is outdated, right? I feel like that one should definitely be avoided, but I can't recall if MAC filtering is really effective.

I practiced a question like this before, and I think using WPA encryption and MAC filtering were the right answers, but I could be mixing it up.

I think not broadcasting the SSID might help a bit, but I’m not convinced it’s a strong security measure on its own.

I remember that WPA encryption is definitely a strong choice for securing a wireless network, but I'm not so sure about MAC filtering.

TRUE is definitely the right choice here. Distributed computing is all about breaking down a big task and then putting the pieces back together. Easy peasy!

I'm a bit confused by the different options here. It's not clear to me how the Data Catalog approach in Option B would work in practice. And Option C with the view seems overly complicated. I'm leaning towards Option A as the most straightforward solution.

I could be wrong, but I thought CloudTrail logs track API calls rather than request origins. I'm leaning towards option D.

WEP? Seriously? I thought we were past the Stone Age of wireless security. That's like using a paperclip to secure Fort Knox.
