I’m a bit confused; I thought social engineering was more about direct interaction. But A does seem to fit the definition better than the others.

I practiced a question like this before, and I feel like eavesdropping isn't really social engineering. So, I guess it has to be A.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about phishing being a type of social engineering. That makes me lean towards A too.

I think social engineering is all about manipulating people, so option A sounds right since it involves tricking users into giving away their info.

I've got this! The common risk response strategy for both positive and negative risks is Accept. I'm confident that's the right answer.

I think the answer might be "Misprision of felony," but I'm not entirely sure. We talked about it in class, but I need to remember the specifics.

I think I know the answer to this one. Option C seems right - the subprocess can be reused and called from other processes.

I feel like this scenario relates to a practice question we had on ethics in planning. Maybe reaching out to a mentor first would give me some clarity before talking to my supervisor.
