Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Eavesdropping:
Eavesdropping involves intercepting communications between parties without their consent. If the details were obtained from a meeting, it likely involved intercepting audio or network communications, such as unsecured VoIP calls, radio signals, or in-room microphones.
Why Not Other Options?
B (Bluesnarfing): Targets Bluetooth-enabled devices, which is unlikely to apply to general meeting communications.
C (Credential harvesting): Focuses on collecting user credentials and does not explain the discovery of product details from a meeting.
D (SQL injection): Exploits databases and is unrelated to capturing meeting communication.
