Question

Given below are two statements :
one is labelled as
Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as
Reason (R).
Assertion (A) :
TCP provides reliable, in-order delivery of data segments using sequence numbers.
Reason (R) :
TCP ensures security and confidentiality of transmitted data.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

• A. Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
• B. Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
• C. (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
• D. (A) is not correct but (R) is correct

Hint:

Think of TCP as a reliable postal service that makes sure your letters arrive in the right order. However, it doesn't "lock" the letters—for that, you need the "envelope" of TLS/SSL!
