D. The IT team accesses the scheduler admin panel via a generic account. Using a generic account for accessing the scheduler admin panel poses significant security risks. It makes it difficult to track individual user actions, which can lead to accountability issues and complicate incident response. Additionally, it increases the risk of unauthorized access, as generic accounts are often less secure and more prone to misuse.

Selected Answer: C
I'm leaning toward C on this due to this being an audit certificate. One would think they would care most about security and encryption out of the options provided. Not to say that option A and D aren't concerns as well. Just C seems to be more concerning.
