I'm guessing the correct answer is D) Audit policy. The company is actively scanning its web server, which should be part of a comprehensive audit process to identify and mitigate security risks.

Hmm, this looks like a network security assessment. The company is being proactive, which is good. I hope they have a solid audit policy in place to ensure the process is transparent and secure.
