Selected Answer: B

B. Intellectual property Research and development teams typically handle sensitive information related to new inventions, designs, processes, and technologies. This type of data is considered intellectual property (IP) and is crucial for maintaining a competitive edge in the market. Protecting this data from unauthorized access, theft, or misuse is a primary concern, hence the extensive training provided to these employees.

Selected Answer: C

It is not Intellectual Property because that is publicly available information and is usually copyrighted/trademarked so it doesn't need to be protected. The answer is Critical data because this is highly sensitive data, if exposed could cause harm to the business.
