Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Output filtering to detect and block dangerous code constructs
Why this is correct
Output filtering can analyze generated code for malicious patterns and block it.
- ✗
Input validation to block the word 'delete'
Why it's wrong here
An attacker can easily bypass by using synonyms or obfuscation.
- ✗
Rate limiting on the number of requests per user
Why it's wrong here
Rate limiting does not filter harmful outputs.
- ✗
Retraining the model on safe code only
Why it's wrong here
Retraining is expensive and does not guarantee that the model won't generate harmful code.
