Gotta be C) Honeypot. Stephen's playing a dangerous game, but hey, at least he's keeping the organization's network safe. I hope he has some good cyber insurance, just in case!

Easy peasy, it's definitely a honeypot. Stephen's playing a little game of cat and mouse with the bad guys, and I'm here for it!

I'm not sure, but I think a Firewall could also be used for this purpose.
