Answer: B

The highest risk is logical access to information by a
terminated employee. This form of access is possible if the
user id and password of the terminated employee have not
been deleted. If the user id is not disabled or deleted, it
is possible that the employee without physically visiting
the company can access the information. The potential of
loss on account of access to information is much higher,
compared to payment of salary and non-return of company
property.
