List of allowed access domain which can enter
B
A list that is white
C
The same as a black list

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Whitelisting is the opposite of blacklisting. Instead of blocking specific addresses or devices, whitelisting allows only specific addresses or devices to access data or networks. This is usually done by keeping a list of trusted users or devices and only allowing traffic from those addresses.

Detailed explanation-2: -A whitelist automatically blocks anything not included on the list. This is the opposite of a blacklist. A greylisting temporary blocks or places limits on anything included on the list until an additional step is performed, such as a manual check.

Detailed explanation-3: -FATF high-risk countries are blacklisted if they present a high-risk of money laundering and terror. FATF high risk countries are greylisted if they show commitment to resolving the highlighted strategies deficiencies within the agreed timeframe, and the jurisdiction is subject to increased monitoring by FATF.

Detailed explanation-4: -The blacklist/whitelist alternatives have several options each: blocklist/allowlist, exclude list/include list and avoid list/prefer list.
