Session hijacking? More like session 'high-jacking'! Am I right, folks? Hey, at least I'm keeping it light in these trying times.

B and D are no-brainers, but A? Slowing down the network? That's like trying to catch a fish with a stick of dynamite. Not very subtle, is it?

Wow, this is a tricky one. I'm going to go with B, C, and D. A sounds more like a denial of service attack, not session hijacking.

All of these answers seem relevant to session hijacking. C is a good way to mitigate the risk, but you can never be too careful.

B and D are definitely true. Session hijacking is a real threat and can lead to some serious security issues. I'm not sure about A though, seems a bit off.
