Selected Answer: A
The correct answer is: A. Unskilled attacker Explanation: Unskilled attackers (often referred to as script kiddies) are individuals with limited technical expertise who use pre-made tools or scripts to carry out attacks. Defacing a high-profile website, such as that of a music group, is a common activity for such attackers because it provides them with a sense of notoriety and is relatively easy to accomplish using publicly available tools. Organized crime (B) typically focuses on financial gain through activities like fraud, ransomware, or data theft, rather than defacing websites. Nation-state (C) actors are usually involved in espionage, sabotage, or cyber warfare targeting critical infrastructure or government systems, not high-profile music groups. Insider threat (D) refers to individuals within an organization who misuse their access, which is unlikely to be the case in this scenario.
