It's C. The context is EXTERNAL attack. Hardened perimeter devices are primarily a countermeasure against external threats, not internal threats. Internal threats require measures that focus on personnel, access controls, and monitoring of insider activity. The others are all internal measures.

Selected Answer: B
I personally don't agree to C, because in large enterprises you may have several internal network zones which some of these may have a perimeter control. So from my perspective B makes no sense and is not a formal control.
