Which of the following are the most significant risks related to purchasing and maintaining computer-related...

In modern engineering and technology practice, businesses rely entirely on digital infrastructure for design, communication, data storage, and project management. While physical destruction, electrical surges, and petty theft (Options A, B, and C) are valid operational risks, they are generally localized and easily mitigated by standard insurance policies and physical security. The most significant, catastrophic risks related to IT infrastructure are massive system failures, irreversible data loss, and unauthorized intrusions (cyberattacks/hacking). These events can cripple an entire organization simultaneously. Data loss can wipe out years of proprietary engineering work, leading to massive financial liabilities and breached contracts. Unauthorized intrusions (like ransomware or data breaches) directly compromise client confidentiality and privacy laws (such as PIPEDA), potentially destroying the firm's professional reputation and resulting in severe legal penalties. Managing these complex cybersecurity and redundancy risks is a critical duty for modern technological professionals.
