Selected Answer: D
The reason the findings cannot be remediated is due to the unavailability of patches. Since the company that developed the embedded systems is no longer in business, there is no one to provide updates, including security patches, for the systems. This lack of support leaves the systems vulnerable to the unsecure protocols they are running, and there is no feasible way to update or patch them to address the security issues.
