Question

private - sector investigations are typically easier than law enforcement investigations for which of the following reasons?
a. most companies keep inventory databases of all hardware and software used.
b. the investigator doesnt have to get a warrant.
c. the investigator must get a warrant.
d. users can load whatever they want on their machines.

Explanation:

Law enforcement investigations require warrants to access private data due to legal protections, while private-sector investigators (working for the entity that owns the data) do not need to obtain a warrant, removing a major procedural barrier. Option a is not a universal ease factor, option c is the opposite of the correct reason, and option d creates challenges for private-sector investigations rather than making them easier.

Answer:

b. The investigator doesn't have to get a warrant.
