You know, if I was the one who noticed all that stuff, I'd be pretty spooked. Whoever's behind this is really trying to cover their tracks. I'm going with D, log tampering.

It's definitely a possibility, but I think it could also be a reconnaissance attack.

B, reconnaissance attack, for sure. The changes and data dumps point to someone gathering information about the system, don't they? Gotta watch out for those sneaky hackers!

Hmm, I think the answer is D. Log tampering seems like the most likely culprit here, with the unexpected changes and the large data dumps. Definitely want to look into that further.

It's possible, but I think B could also be a valid option. A reconnaissance attack could involve gathering information through data dumps on network shares.
