Correct answer: D
Explanation
Correct Answer: D. Implementing a honeypot trap. Explanation: A honeypot trap involves deploying decoy systems and services to lure intruders, allowing for the early detection of unauthorized access. This proactive measure helps identify potential threats before significant damage is inflicted on the network.
