I think answer D is correct. Auditor recommendations should be a fix for the root cause. Option A suggest corrective actions to fix the problem. Option D suggests to have REGULAR access reviews to prevent this.

Selected Answer: A
While requiring the business owner to conduct regular access reviews (option D) may be a part of the overall security strategy, it is not the immediate and most effective response to address the specific incident of unauthorized access. Option A addresses the issue directly by recommending corrective actions to be taken by the security administrator to mitigate the risk and prevent further unauthorized access to confidential data.
