Rootkit

C.

Spyware

Answers
C.

Spyware

D.

Keylogger

Answers
D.

Keylogger

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

Rootkits are particularly dangerous because they modify the operating system to hide their presence and can disable antivirus software like Windows Defender. Ransomware (A) encrypts files, but usually does not disable antivirus software. Spyware (C) and Keyloggers (D) typically do not directly disable antivirus programs either.
