I feel like it could be script kiddies, but I also wonder if phreakers could be a possibility. I need to think this through more.

I practiced a question similar to this, and it was about how easy access to tools increases the number of script kiddies. So, I’m leaning towards C.

I think the answer might be C, script kiddies, because those tools are designed for people without much technical skill.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the file system types mentioned and which one is associated with Resilient File Service.

This question seems straightforward - the key is to identify the most important component of the audit trail for external auditors. I'll focus on understanding the different options and choosing the one that best aligns with the information provided.

I've got a good strategy for this - I'll focus on understanding the YANG model structure and how to modify the device instance.
