Nofsinger consultants have encountered significant resistance to their recommendation that Sifers$-$Grayson hire a trained and certified computer forensics examiner to lead the Incident Response Team. The company's CEO has stated $"$we are not in the business of chasing criminals $--$ therefore we do not need to hire forensics examiners." How should Nofsinger respond to this rejection?

Warn the CEO that hiring a trained and certified forensics professional is the only way to ensure that criminals will be caught when the company is attacked in the future.

Explain that a "computer forensics examiner" is not a law enforcement officer. This term refers to an IT professional who is trained in digital forensics and whose job is to support and protect the company.

Nofsinger should take no action. The CEO is the customer and the customer is always right.

Work with Sifers$-$Grayson to implement computer forensics training for existing staff and then promote the individual who has the highest score on the certification exam.
