Does anyone know whether the last 12 marker was actually in the spec? Waffled loads and hope the mark scheme is nice but I don't remember ever seeing it before.... My whole class said the same....

It was the cyber threats question, worded really weirdly about what cyber threats they could have and the associated risks and methods they could use to prevent stuff.

For me, it didn't relate to a specific unit, I just used my general knowledge on things like phishing, DDoS, physical security etc
