Question

The intentional planting of apparent system flaws to detect attempted penetrations or confuse an intruder about which flaws to exploit is called:

A alteration
B investigation
C entrapment
D enticement.

Explanation

Enticement is the deliberate use of apparent vulnerabilities or attractive targets to lure an attacker toward controlled, observable activity or to misdirect the attacker’s effort. Entrapment is the inducement of an otherwise unwilling person to commit an offense, so it does not describe merely presenting apparent system flaws.
