Correct Answer: C

Firewalls are designed to monitor and filter network traffic, providing protection against unauthorized access and attacks from the Internet. They can be either software-based or hardware-based. However, firewalls do not provide tools that allow network administrators to retaliate against hackers. Hence, the statement that firewalls provide network administrators tools to retaliate against hackers is false.

I think the answer is A. Firewalls are tools to monitor traffic, so they don't have the ability to detect viruses. Viruses are usually detected by anti-virus apps, based on signatures or self-learning.
