A security consultant is improving the physical security of a sensitive site and takes pictures of the unbranded building to include in the report. The main issue here is the GEOTAGGING INFO of SENSITIVE SITE. SO C in this context. C.

Maybe: B. MicroSD contains a mixture of personal and work data ? On the phone: "Consultancy HR Manual.doc" HR? As in human resources? That could have all kinds of data about corporate employees.

Errors aside, the answer is A. There's nothing I can see to say that the address listed is geotag information, and there are TAX documents on this unencrypted drive (which have a buttload of personal data AND your address). if there were 2 options it would be A/C, but the BIGGEST problem is A, all the personal info on the unencrypted drive.

According to Question #366 Geotag information does not look like an address, it looks like this: JFIF 40 42.8562N 74 0.3582W
