A company has decided to process credit card transactions directly. Which of the following would meet the requirements for scanning this type of data?

Answer options

• A. Quarterly
• B. Yearly
• C. Bi-annually
• D. Monthly

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The other options, such as Yearly, Bi-annually, and Monthly, do not meet the minimum frequency required for effective data security and compliance.
