D) chown? Nah, that's just for changing file ownership, not preventing modifications. I'm going with C) chmod.

Hey, did you hear about the IT guy who tried to use setcap to protect his files? Ended up turning himself into a superhero cape instead!

Yeah, chmod is the right command for that. It changes the permissions of the files.
