Selected Answer: A
The correct answer is: A. /var/log/secure Explanation: • A. /var/log/secure – This file logs authentication-related events on many Linux distributions, including login attempts, sudo commands, and SSH access. It’s the best source to determine when a user logged in, making it ideal for tracking unauthorized or off-hours logins.
