Selected Answer: B
A hacktivist is a threat actor who is motivated by ideology or a social or political cause. They use their hacking skills to carry out cyber-attacks against organizations or individuals that they believe are against their ideology or principles. Hacktivists often engage in website defacements, data breaches, and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks to spread their message or achieve their objectives. Their actions are typically driven by social or political motivations rather than financial gain or personal amusement, which differentiates them from other types of threat actors.
