Answer: D
There is a probability that a terminated employee may misuse
access rights, therefore, disabling the terminated
employee's logical access is the most important action to
take. All the work of the terminated employee needs to be
handed over to a designated employee, however this should be
performed after implementing choice D. All the work of the
terminated employee needs to be backed up and the employees
need to be notified of the termination of the employee but
again this should not precede the action in choice D.
