Question 10 of 10

10. Question
How is commenting on code a good defence strategy?
- Comments make it difficult to distinguish the source code from code descriptions, reducing the chance of hackers making changes which could affect system security.
- Comments enable system security programs to make sense of the source code resulting, in an improvement in their ability to protect software from misuse.
- Comments allow programmers to better understand the code that is written. So when programmers make improvements to the code, they are less likely to introduce errors, reducing the chance of introducing software bugs.
- Comments enable certain artificial intelligence (AI) software packages to rewrite aspects of a program's code, the moment they become aware of new security threats.
