I think the clue that points to TCP is “Flags[S]” It looks like the attacker is sending SYN packets to the server and finds out what ports are open when/if they respond with a SYN/ACK.

For me best answer is C, because the question says “any further attacks from the same IP”.
If you don’t use ACL in C, the attacker can start trying other IP address on the network.
