E doesn't make sense at all; I remember that a VPN is still considered a virtual network, not a real one.

C seems a bit off to me; I recall that VPNs can work over public networks without needing a dedicated line.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like B is incorrect since VPNs are meant for external connections too, right?

Ah, I see what they're getting at. In an agile process, quality should be built into the development from the start, not just tested at the end. Option C captures that really well.

This one seems pretty straightforward. I'll go with True since the question states that quality improvement programs must be management led and customer oriented.

A VPN is a 'real' private network, huh? Well, I guess that makes it a 'virtual' reality then. Option E is the perfect choice for the 'virtually' uninformed.

A VPN between a machine and a private network, but never a remote network? Sounds like someone's been watching too many spy movies. Option D is a no-go.
