As written A is the best answer. B would be the best if it mentioned documenting an exception to the standard based on the risk assessment.

Agreed. Policy and security standards are not subjective, they are to be followed. If exceptions are to be made, it must go through an approval process rather than allowed to proceed and management catches up to the problem. Allowing a precedent to happen opens the doors to other departments performing the same action causing disorganized management
