Answer:

Option (A) is the right answer.

Explanation:

The following terms can be described as :

Phishing: Phishing can be described as the concept of stealing personal data i.e. credit card, bank account information, etc. of customers by sending fraud emails or by making fraud webpages on the name of a reputed company.

Tailgating: tailgating can be defined as the concept of getting entry with the authorized person in a restricted zone.

Baiting: baiting can be described as the term of stealing personal data by giving greed to customers by telling them fraud offers.

Quid pro quo: quid pro quo can be defined as the concept where the attacker takes the access of the system.  

According to the scenario, the most appropriate answer is option (A) because the company sends a wrong web address which is used by hackers to collect user's personal data which comes under phishing.

Given the following function definition
siniylev [52]

Answer:

B. 1 6 3

Explanation:

Given function definition for calc:

void calc (int a, int& b)

{

int c;

c = a + 2;

a = a * 3;

b = c + a;

}

Function invocation:

x = 1;

y = 2;

z = 3;

calc(x, y);

cout << x << " " << y << " " << z << endl;

  • Since x is passed by value, its value remains 1.
  • y is passed by reference to the function calc(x,y);

Tracing the function execution:

c=3

a=3

b=c+a = 6;

But b actually corresponds to y. So y=6 after function call.

  • Since z is not involved in function call, its value remain 3.

So output: 1 6 3
