Which of the following is a Strategy to achieve Software diversity ?
Correct answer: D. All of the mentioned
- A. Different programming languages
- B. Different design methods and tools
- C. Explicit specification of different algorithms
- D. All of the mentioned
Explanation
Software diversity reduces common-mode failures by using different languages, design approaches, tools, or algorithms. Since each listed technique can introduce implementation diversity, all of them apply.
