D. Isolating the affected assets in a separate network is a smart move to contain the outbreak. Why take risks when you can just quarantine the problem?

I'm going with C. Applying vendor patches or available hot fixes seems like the best way to proactively address the vulnerabilities and prevent further damage.

I think the answer is B. Acknowledging the vulnerabilities and documenting the risk is the responsible thing to do, even if management decides not to prioritize fixing them.
