Which of the following is a damage category from a security breach?

• A. Data Privacy
• B. System Updates
• C. Cost to Repair Damage
• D. User Access Logs

Answer: (C)

When a security breach happens, the damages are usually described in terms of what it costs to recover and restore the system. The best-fitting damage category here is the cost to repair damage, because it directly represents the monetary impact of the incident—the expenses for incident response, forensics, system restoration, customer notifications, credit monitoring, potential fines, and other legal or remediation costs.

Data privacy describes what is affected, but it’s not a monetary damage category itself. System updates are actions taken to fix vulnerabilities, not a measure of damage. User access logs are records used for investigation, not a damage category.
