D. Dumpster diving

Answer:

Privacy screens are used to mitigate the threat of Shoulder Surfing.

An organization that has purchased privacy screens for all users is trying to mitigate the threat of Shoulder Surfing. Shoulder surfing is a technique used to obtain confidential information by looking over someone's shoulder to see what they are typing or displaying on their screen. It's a physical, real-world threat that privacy screens can help to mitigate by making it harder for onlookers to see the information on the screen from different angles.

Other threats like Password Masking, Vishing, and Dumpster Diving are not directly impacted by the use of privacy screens.
