Question tripped me up. Remember this is asking what you should PROTECT next after human life (not what you should use to select a data center site!). SO we have a tough call between A & B; but you can recover operations and buy new property – you can’t undo a data breach.

Assets encompass data, hardware and everything that keeps business; even human is an asset , if we can exclude human then the question is focusing on next single thing.. Data and hardware should be correct

Changed to B. According to the BCP: 1. People, 2. Facility 3. Infrastructure It says "Protection" in the beginning. You can't protect Profits (D), you can't protect Resources (C). You can protect Data and Hardware (A), but the most important is property and operations. The answer is B.

Selected Answer: D
I am going with D. Profits and Assets. next important thing to a business after human life is profits. because that's the whole reason for running a business. Assets covers rest of the things i.e.: Data, Hardware, reputation, market share etc.
