I'm going with Option B. Gotta love a nice, linear progression of steps. Much easier to follow than some of these other convoluted sequences.

Wait, why are we checking physical security during a vulnerability assessment? That's a bit out of place, don't you think?

Option B seems to be the correct sequence. Vulnerability scanning should come before identifying and prioritizing the vulnerabilities.

I see your point, but I still think A) makes more sense because it prioritizes vulnerabilities early on.
