usually, the first thing you do to a computer to prevent further tampering is to ______.
a make a backup.
b make a copy.
c take it offline.
d lock it in a secure room.

Explanation:

To prevent further tampering with a computer, taking it offline (disconnecting from networks) is a key initial step as it stops remote access or interference. Making a backup/copy is for data preservation, and locking in a room is a physical measure but not the first action for tampering prevention related to computer access. So the correct option is C.

Answer:

C. Take it offline.
