Explanation

A File Blocking Security Profile supports the following actions: Alert (C - log the file transfer without blocking), Block (B - prevent the file transfer entirely), Continue (F - present the user with a warning/prompt and allow them to proceed), and Forward (send the file to WildFire for analysis). 'Reset-both' (E) is an action found in Vulnerability Protection or Antivirus profiles, not File Blocking. 'Upload' (D) is not a valid File Blocking action. Note that choice C is misspelled as 'Alret' in the question but refers to the 'Alert' action.
