Permissive
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

In network security, the stance on managing and assessing risk can vary widely depending on the security policies of an organization.

A 'Permissive' stance, often referred to as a default permit approach, allows all traffic unless it has been specifically blocked. This approach can be easier to manage from a usability standpoint but is less secure as it potentially allows unwanted or malicious traffic unless explicitly filtered.

This is in contrast to a more restrictive policy, which denies all traffic unless it has been explicitly permitted, typically seen in more secure environments.
