Answer / guest
Answer: D
Whenever proprietary application software is purchased, the
contract should provide for a source code agreement. This
will ensure that the purchasing company will have the
opportunity to modify the software should the vendor cease
to be in business. Having a backup server with current data
and staff training is critical but not as critical as
ensuring the availability of the source code.
