Explanation

Advanced WildFire can analyze most file types inline as they pass through the firewall. However, certain scripting file types cannot be submitted inline and must be uploaded directly to the WildFire cloud portal or API for analysis. PowerShell scripts (.ps1, choice A) and VBScript files (.vbs, choice D) fall into this category. Python (C) and Perl (B) scripts are not in the list of file types requiring direct portal/API upload - they can be handled through standard inline submission paths supported by the WildFire subscription.
