B) Investigation is the way to go. You don't want the team to be like a bull in a china shop, you know? Gotta be careful and delicate when gathering that evidence. Hey, at least they won't be playing 'Capture the Flag' with the servers!

I'm going with B) Investigation. That's where the real detective work happens, and you can't afford to mess it up by accidentally changing the evidence. Unless, of course, you're secretly the culprit and want to cover your tracks. Just joking, just joking!

B) Investigation makes the most sense here. You need to extract information without altering the original data to understand what's happening and how to respond effectively. Anything else would just be guesswork.

The answer is clearly B) Investigation. That's when the team will gather and analyze the evidence without modifying the original data. I've seen this in my training, and it's crucial for preserving the integrity of the investigation.
