CompTIA PenTest+ PT0-002 Practice Question

A tree is the correct answer because it is a data structure that consists of nodes in a parent/child relationship. In penetration testing, understanding trees can be beneficial when evaluating structured data or hierarchies such as file systems or organizational charts. An array is a collection of items stored at contiguous memory locations and does not represent hierarchical data. A JSON object is a data format that typically represents data in a key-value pair, but does not inherently define a parent-child hierarchy. CSV is a simple file format used to store tabular data, such as a spreadsheet or database but does not define hierarchical structures.
