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 function definition
kirza4 [7]

output of the following code fragment that invokes Twist is:

1 14 3

Explanation:

In the function Twist(),two parameters are passed. First is passed by value and second is passed by reference. If a variable is passed by value then any change made by the function will not affect the original value of that variable but when a variable is passed by reference then any change made by the function will change the original value of that variable. When Twist() function invokes with a=3 and b=2 then value of c=3+2 i.e c=5, a=3*3 i.e. a=9 (value of "a" was 3 earlier) and and b=c+a i.e b=5+9. Here only "b"is passed by reference for variable "s" then any change in it's value will be reflected in the "s". That will update the value of "s" to 14.

Choose the type of collection described.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

1) List

2) Dictionary

3) Tuple

Explanation:

A list uses square brackets. It is used to store multiple items in just one variable. They are usually changeable and give room for duplicates. You use append to add to the collection.

A dictionary uses curly brackets. You use update to add to the collection. A dictionary is created by placing the elements in curly brackets and separating them with a comma. It is changeable and it does not give room for duplicates.

A tuple uses parentheses. You cannot change it once you create it. It is an ordered list of elements that is finite and can also store multiple items in one variable.
