Answer: A
Not reporting an intrusion is equivalent to an IS auditor
hiding a malicious intrusion, which would be a professional
mistake. Although notification to the police may be required
and the lack of a periodic examination of access rights
might be a concern, they do not represent as big a concern
as the failure to report the attack. Reporting to the public
is not a requirement and is dependent on the organization's
desire or lack thereof to make the intrusion known.
