D seems like a poor choice since it limits the use of threat intelligence. I feel like we discussed how sharing is crucial for security teams.

Sharing raw data with everyone sounds risky, so I’d lean away from C, but I can't recall why exactly.

I remember a practice question that emphasized the importance of access control, so maybe B could be a valid choice too, but it feels counterintuitive.

I think option A makes the most sense since real-time feeds can provide immediate insights, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the best starting point.
