I think reviewing the traceability matrix is essential because it connects requirements to the final solution, but I’m a bit uncertain about how to apply it in this context.

I feel pretty confident that reviewing the traceability matrix is the way to go. That's going to give you a clear, documented view of how the solution maps back to the original requirements. Seems like the most thorough approach to me.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know user acceptance testing is important, but I'm not sure if that's the best way to determine if the requirements are met. Maybe reviewing the project charter would give more insight into the overall business goals.

I've seen this type of configuration before. I think the answer is B, SIP Access Control. That's where you'd add the allowed or denied IP/CIDR addresses.

Based on the requirements, I'd recommend going with the DataRaptors and HTTP Actions to integrate the existing APEX, and then using the LWC templates to handle the branding and styling. That seems like the fastest way to get this done while keeping the UX simple.
