What are the problems with certificaiton - correct answer First, the security field is

Discretionary Access Controls - correct answer The basis of this kind of security is
that an
individual user, or program operating on his behalf, is allowed to specify
explicitly the types of access other users may have to information under

that it implements an access control policy on the basis of an
individual's need-to-know as opposed to mandatory controls which are
driven by the classification or sensitivity designation of the
information.
Mandatory Access Controls - correct answer Mandatory security refers to the
enforcement of a set of access control rules that constrains a subject's access to
information on the basis of a comparison of that individual's clearance/authorization
to the information, the classification/sensitivity designation of the information, and
the form of access being mediated
