Jane, a security analyst, is reviewing logs from hosts across the Internet which her company uses to gather data on new malware. Which of the following is being implemented by Jane's company?

A vulnerability scanner actively probes systems to identify known weaknesses and does not passively collect malware samples from the Internet.

A honeynet consists of multiple honeypot systems networked together, designed to appear as legitimate targets to lure attackers and malware for observation and intelligence gathering. By deploying hosts across the Internet specifically to collect data on new malware, Jane's company is operating a honeynet. This technique provides real-world threat intelligence that cannot be captured by passive scanning tools.

A protocol analyzer (packet sniffer) captures and inspects network traffic on a local segment and does not involve deploying dedicated lure hosts across the Internet.

A port scanner identifies open ports and services on target hosts and is an active reconnaissance tool, not a data collection mechanism for malware intelligence.
