Cryptography? More like crypt-tography, am I right? Seriously though, I'd say sniffing is the way to go here. Gotta keep those packets safe and sound.

Cryptography is like the duct tape of cybersecurity - it can't fix everything, but it's always worth a try! I'll go with option B, just to be safe.

Web ripping? Is that even a real thing? I think I'll go with sniffing for this one - encrypting the traffic is a solid countermeasure.

Buffer overflow is a different type of attack that cryptography may not directly address.

Cryptography is great for securing data in transit, but it won't do much to stop a good old-fashioned DoS attack. You need other mitigation strategies for that one.

Cryptography can definitely protect against sniffing attacks, but I'm not sure it's the best defense against buffer overflows. Those require more low-level security controls.
