Why does fiber optic communication technology have significant security advantage over other transmission
technology?

A.
Higher data rates can be transmitted.

B.
Interception of data traffic is more difficult.

C.
Traffic analysis is prevented by multiplexing.

D.
Single and double-bit errors are correctable.

Explanation:
Because fiber-optic cable passes electrically non-conducting photons through a glass medium, it is very hard to
intercept or wiretap.
Incorrect Answers:
A: High data rates are an advantage of fiber options, but speed in itself does not significantly increase speed.
C: Multiplexing would not prevent traffic analysis. It would just make it harder.
D: Correctable bits are not an advantage of fiber optic communication.
