Nah, I'm going with B. Webcrawling the organization's website is the way to go. It's like digital window-shopping, but for tech secrets!

But wouldn't webcrawling the organization's website also be a passive way to gather information?

I agree with Marsha, that seems like a passive way to learn about technologies used in an organization.

Hmm, I think the correct answer is C. Searching regional newspapers and job databases seems like a good way to passively learn about the technologies used in an organization. No need to get my hands dirty with active attacks.
