Explanation:

Question 4

White - hat hackers are ethical hackers. They break into systems legally for non - malicious purposes like testing security vulnerabilities. Black - hat hackers are malicious. Gray - hat hackers have a more ambiguous (not fully legal or illegal) approach. Green - hat is not a standard term in this context.

Social Security number, date of birth, and street address are key pieces of personal information that identity thieves target. An anniversary is not typically one of the four key pieces (the four are usually Social Security number, date of birth, mother's maiden name, and street address).

Cookies are text files. They help companies determine website traffic flow. Some companies sell cookie - based personal information. But cookies do not obtain personal information by searching the hard drive. They are mainly used for web - related tracking (e.g., session management, preferences).

Answer:

White - hat
