C. The deployment script is performing unknown actions. When an administrator does not understand the scripting language and is not familiar with the script, there is a risk that the script may be performing unknown or unintended actions on the computers. This could include unintended changes to system configurations, or the installation of malware or other malicious software. It's important to thoroughly review and test the script to ensure it performs the intended actions before deploying it in a production environment.

Selected Answer: C
C. The deployment script is performing unknown actions. As the junior administrator does not understand the scripting language, they cannot accurately assess what the script does or any potential risks associated with it. Running the script blindly could cause unintended actions, such as deploying malware or deleting important files, which could negatively impact the organization's network and data. It is essential to ensure that any scripts or code deployed on organizational systems are fully understood and trusted.
