I thought ARP spoofing was the main culprit here?

Definitely B, session sidejacking is all about that cookie theft!

I'm leaning towards session sidejacking because it specifically mentions stealing session cookies, but I could be mixing it up with another type of attack.

Session fixation sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it involves packet sniffing. I feel like I need to review that topic again.

I think this might be related to session hijacking, but I'm not sure if it's specifically session sidejacking or something else.

I remember practicing a question about ARP spoofing, but I don't think that's the right answer here since it doesn't directly involve session cookies.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the different log levels and what exactly needs to be logged. I'll need to carefully review the policy file examples and make sure I understand the requirements before making any changes.

I'm not entirely sure about this one. The question mentions a few different types of scans, and I'm not completely familiar with the differences between them. I'll have to think this through carefully and review my notes on network scanning techniques.

I'm not totally confident, but my initial thought is that the statement is True. Lower net retention would lead to more unpredictability in the reserves, so the variability should increase. I'll double-check my understanding before answering.

This looks pretty straightforward. I'm pretty sure Python, Perl, and JavaScript are the right answers.
