As a small business owner, I'd go with option A. Self-signed certs are cheaper and easier to manage for my setup.

Option C is clearly wrong - if your resources don't need security, why would you even bother with a certificate?

But what about larger enterprises? Can they use self-signed certificates if their computers all trust their CA server?

I think option D is the correct answer. If your enterprise trusts your own CA server, you can use a self-signed certificate without any issues.
