Why each option

To resolve website outages caused by manual log archiving when the administrator is absent, the best solution is to automate the retention policies for security logs.

AAutomate the retention policies.Correct

The problem states that a manual log archiving process causes website outages when the administrator is on vacation; automating the retention policies directly addresses this by ensuring logs are managed automatically according to defined rules, eliminating the manual dependency and preventing service disruption.

BAutomate the removal of inactive accounts.

Automating the removal of inactive accounts is related to identity management and security hygiene, which is unrelated to a manual log archiving process causing website unavailability.

CAutomate the removal of orphaned resources.

Automating the removal of orphaned resources helps with cost management and resource hygiene but has no direct relation to a manual log archiving process disrupting website access.

DAutomate the addition of web servers.

Automating the addition of web servers addresses scaling and capacity, which is not the root cause of the described outage, which stems from a manual dependency in log management.
