Answers
A.
NTFS
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Alternate Data Streams (ADS) is a feature of the NTFS file system that allows more than one data stream to be associated with a filename, using the filename format "filename:streamname". Alternate streams are not listed in Windows Explorer, and their size is not included in the file size. ADS provides the hacker a place to hide root kits or hacker tools, which can be executed without being detected by the system administrator. Alternate Data Streams are strictly a feature of the NTFS file system. Alternate Data Streams may be used as a method of hiding executables or proprietary content.
