Explanation
MSRA (Microsoft Remote Assistance) is purpose-built for help-desk scenarios: it allows a technician to view and interact with a user's live desktop session while the user remains present and can observe all activity. The connection is encrypted and requires the user's consent, satisfying both the 'securely' and 'view the user's screen' requirements. SSH (A) is a secure command-line tunnel with no GUI screen sharing. MSTSC (B) is Remote Desktop, which takes over the entire session rather than assisting the current user. SFTP (C) is a secure file-transfer protocol, not a remote viewing tool.
