Final answer:
The correct protocol to use for downloading the 'social-media-security-policy' to the CEO's PC is FTP (File Transfer Protocol), which relies on TCP for data transmission.The correct answer to the question is b) File Transfer Protocol.
Step-by-step explanation:
To use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to download a file called 'social-media-security-policy' to the CEO's PC, you need to follow certain steps. FTP is a standard network protocol used for the transfer of files between a client and server on a computer network.
FTP uses the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for transferring files reliably. So, looking at the options provided:
- a) Transmission Control Protocol - This is the underlying protocol that FTP uses for reliable communication.
- b) File Transfer Protocol - This is the correct answer since FTP is explicitly mentioned in the question and is the method for downloading files.
- c) Internet Protocol - While FTP relies on IP for network communication, the act of downloading files is specifically achieved through FTP, not directly via IP alone.
- d) User Datagram Protocol - UDP is another transport layer protocol used for transmitting data with minimal protocol mechanism, but FTP specifically uses TCP, not UDP.
The correct answer to the question is b) File Transfer Protocol.
