E is about non-repudiation, not really authentication.

This reminds me of a question we did on ECI that mentioned really quick scaling, but I'm still undecided about whether the claim here is definitively true.

Okay, I think I've got it. The key is to synchronize the Company A directory to ensure the new group memberships are properly applied to the migrated users. That should resolve the issue they're experiencing.

I've got this one! The answer is clearly C - DNS/Web Server logs with IP addresses. That's going to give us the IP information we need to track the Tor traffic and identify the locations.
