Selected Answer: A
A. It allows the user to run a self-contained computer from a USB device. The Amnesic Incognito Live System (TAILS) is a live operating system that you can run from a USB stick or DVD. It is designed to preserve privacy and anonymity by not leaving traces on the computer you're using. It does not save any data to the hard drive and is self-contained, which aligns with option A.

Selected Answer: B
The correct answer is B. It accesses systems with a credential that leaves no discernable tracks. TAILS is designed to provide anonymous and private internet usage by running from a USB device without leaving traces on the host system. It routes internet traffic through the Tor network, ensuring privacy and security for users who need to browse or communicate without revealing their identity or leaving digital footprints. TAILS does not suspend security protocols; instead, it enhances security by minimizing exposure and maintaining anonymity.
