The correct answer is letter "D": Record and conceal fraudulent transactions in the normal course of assigned tasks.

Explanation:

In the corporate world, segregation of activities refers to assigning a determined number of duties to each employee according to their qualifications and skills. In such a way, the firm ensures the workers' duties are limited which reduces the possibilities of fraud to take place.

However, these causes automation and does not allow employees to develop other of their skills. A suitable rotation system would prevent both fraudulent transactions and workers' automation.
