CompTIA Project+ (PK0-004) — Question 153

A project team added a new member who has proprietary information about a competitor's product. The team member was suddenly removed from the project.
Which of the following MOST likely occurred?

Answer options

• A. The company received a C&D.
• B. A higher-priority project needed the expertise.
• C. The new member did not sign an NDA.
• D. An SLA prevented new team members.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The most likely scenario is that the company received a cease and desist (C&D) order due to the risk of confidential information being misused. Options B, C, and D do not directly address the legal implications of handling proprietary information, which is why they are less probable explanations for the team member's removal.
