A web application firewall (WAF) is specifically designed to monitor, filter, and block HTTP traffic to and from a web application. It is different from other types of firewalls because it can filter the content of specific web applications. By inspecting HTTP traffic, a WAF can prevent attacks stemming from web application security flaws, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS), file inclusion, and security misconfigurations.

Ah, I see. Sandboxing is a way to contain and inspect emails to make sure they're safe. That makes sense as the requirement here. I'll go with C.

Okay, I think I've got this. Sandboxing emails means creating a secure, isolated environment to analyze them for potential threats before they're delivered. That sounds like the best description of option C.
