Ooh, I got a good one! What if we just give the asset owners a secret handshake and they'll magically classify everything properly? D is the way to go, for sure!

Hold up, are we sure we shouldn't be telling the board about this? I mean, if the security classifications are all messed up, that sounds like a pretty big deal. A might be the way to go.

Hmm, I don't know about that. Wouldn't it be better to just fix the problem right away? I mean, B seems like the quickest way to get things back on track.

But shouldn't the auditor also notify the board of directors about the findings?

Whoa, that's a tough one! But I'd go with C - document the missing classifications. That way, we can cover our bases and present a clear picture to the higher-ups.
