Which answer below is true about the difference between FTP and TFTP?

A.
FTP enables print job spooling, whereas TFTP does not.

B.
FTP does not have a directory-browsing capability, whereas TFTP does.

C.
FTP is less secure because session authentication does not occur.

D.
TFTP is less secure because session authentication does not occur.

Explanation:
The correct answer is “TFTP is less secure because session authentication does not occur”. The Trivial

authentication does not occur during session establishment (although FTP is very insecure in its own
right).
