No way, it's definitely avoidance if you're trying to dodge full price!

Pretty sure it's called transference since you're involving others.

I think it's more about sharing the cost, not exploiting.

I thought transference was about shifting risk to another party, which doesn't seem to apply here. So maybe it's sharing?

I feel like this is exploiting the situation to get a better deal, but I'm not confident about that.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about avoidance being about eliminating risks entirely. This doesn't seem to fit that.

I think this might be related to sharing, since you're trying to involve other departments to get the discount.

Okay, I think I've got a good handle on this. I'll go with option C - External HTTP(S) Load Balancing with URL Maps and custom headers. That seems to meet all the requirements.

This looks like a straightforward question on the objectives of the Directing a Project process. I'll review the options carefully and choose the one that best matches the description.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'm debating between A and D, but I'm not totally confident in either. Guess I'll have to think it through carefully.

I'm a bit confused by this question. The deny messages are still being permitted, even though the policy is supposed to restrict access. I'm not sure which option would be the MOST likely fix, but I'll give it my best shot.
