Suggested Answer: AC 🗳️
IP reputation leverages many techniques for accurate, early, and frequently updated identification of compromised and malicious clients so you can block attackers before they target your servers.
IP blacklisting is a method used to filter out illegitimate or malicious IP addresses from accessing your networks. Blacklists are lists containing ranges of or individual IP addresses that you want to block.

Agree with @edineme: B: Study Guide P182: If you need to exempt some client public IP addresses to always be allowed, configure Geo IP reputation exemptions first. You can even see in the picture that Exemption is set to Exempted_IPs - list C: Blacklisted IPs get blocked whatever is set in later checks.

C & D Correct A is not right because geo locations are not updated the location DB is updated. B is not right because it is not "geo reputation" it is geo location C is right because the IP might not be in the IP reputation or geo location D is right as the IP reputation scan occurs before the geo-location scan
