Selected Answer: D

D. Dynamic malware analysis In the scenario described, Brian performed dynamic malware analysis. Dynamic analysis involves running a malware sample, such as the received executable file, in a controlled environment to observe its behavior, interactions, and potential impacts. By executing the file in a virtual environment with isolated networks, Brian can monitor the actions of the malware without risking the security of his own systems.
