Selected Answer: C

Answer: C Explanation: RestrictAnonymous must be set to "2" to fully prevent null sessions. (A) ❌ No setting "10" exists; distractor option. (B) ❌ Setting "3" is invalid; not a valid RestrictAnonymous value. (C) ✅ Setting "2" blocks all anonymous access, including null sessions. (D) ❌ Null sessions can be fully blocked with proper configuration. ----- If you agree, please UPVOTE.
