Selected: D
The correct answer is **D. Post-infection detection**.
The R82 Threat Prevention documentation is explicit: the Anti-Bot blade performs post-infection detection of bots on hosts, discovering infections by correlating multiple detection methods.
Why the other options are wrong:
- **A. Protection against infections from undiscovered exploits** — This describes IPS, which provides protection against vulnerabilities and in-the-wild attacks by exploit kits and malicious attackers, not Anti-Bot.
- **B. Pre-infection detection** — This is the domain of Anti-Virus, which performs pre-infection detection and blocking of malware at the gateway. Anti-Bot works the opposite way — it identifies hosts that are already infected.
- **C. Comprehensive protection against malicious and unwanted network traffic** — This describes IPS's broader function of comprehensive protection against malicious and unwanted network traffic, which focuses on application and server vulnerabilities, not Anti-Bot's specific bot-detection role.
