Theodore · Answer 1

The answer is "Option B".

Explanation:

The main drawback of commercial security is, that the software may not protect digital technology against data mining, and they are not known to be the imperial tools, that's why the only option B is correct, and certain options are wrong, which can be explained as follows:

In option A, It used to provide a sequence of instructions, which is used in security. In option C, It doesn't use in security, that's why it is wrong. Option D and Option E are wrong because in software there is no use of court and new software, it only upgrades the software.
