问题     It never rains but it pours. Just as bosses and boards have finally
sorted out their worst accounting and compliance troubles, and improved
their feeble corporation governance, a new problem threatens to earn
it--especially in America--the sort of nasty headlines that inevitably【S1】________
lead to heads rolling in the executive suite：data insecurity. Leave, until【S2】________
now, to odd, low-level IT staff to put right, and seen as a concern only of
data-rich industries such as banking, telecoms and air travel, information
protection is now high on the boss’s agenda in businesses with every【S3】________
variety.
    Several massive leakages of customer and employer data this year—【S4】________
from organizations as diverse as Time Warner, the American defense
contractor Science Applications International Corp and even the
University of California, Berkeley--have left managers hurriedly peer【S5】________
into their intricate IT systems and business processes in the search of【S6】________
potential vulnerabilities.
“Data is becoming an asset which needs to be guarded as many as【S7】________
any other asset, ”says Haim Mendelson of Stanford University’s
business school. “The ability to guard customer data is the key to
market value, what the board is responsible for on behalf of【S8】________
shareholders. ”Indeed, just like there is the concept of Generally【S9】________
Accepted Accounting Principles(GAAP), perhaps it is time for GASP,
Generally Accepted Security Practices, suggested Eli Noam of New
York’s Columbia Business School. “Setting up the proper investment【S10】________
level for security, redundancy and recovery is a management issue, not
a technical one, ”he says.  [br] 【S9】
选项
答案 like—as
解析 近义词误用。as和like都有“正如，好像”的意思，但as可以作连词，引导句子，而like只能作介词，不能用来引导句子，所以此处用as，意思是“正如存在‘公认会计原则’的概念一样，现在可能是出台‘公认安全惯例’的时候了”。
