When a business is hacked, they often lose more than money. What are the other consequences to a business as a result of being hacked? Select two.

Show Answer
Correct Answer: ACDE

When a business is hacked, they can face penalties related to non-compliance with laws and regulations, as violating data protection laws often attracts fines and legal action. Additionally, the breach of security can lead to a loss of customers who may be driven to competitors if they perceive the company's systems to be insecure or experience slow connections as a result of the breach. These two impacts represent significant negative consequences beyond the direct financial loss.

Isn't the question referring to additional losses a business will suffer? My answers are C and E.

C & E as the question about the other consequence.

question asking other consequences apart from loss (CE), so I would still go with A and D.

I would argue that the word "consequence" implies negative impacts, so CE seems to be the correct answers instead.
