Selected Answer: C
C. Typosquatting Explanation: Typosquatting is a form of cyber attack where an attacker registers a domain name similar to a legitimate website but with a slight typo or variation. In this case, the user manually entered the URL "https://comptiatraining.com", which is likely a misspelling or variation of a legitimate website, and was redirected to a fake website designed to look similar to the legitimate one. The noticeable difference in the website suggests that the user may have been directed to a typosquatted site that attempts to trick the user into providing sensitive information or interacting with malicious content.
