that require proximity cards and personal identification numbers (PINS). Only a small percentage of the
organizations employees have access to the computer room. The computer room access restriction is an
example of what type of security control relative to the hardware in the computer room?

protection for the system - correct answer ✔✔An information system is currently in the initiation phase
of the SDLC and has been categorized high impact. The information system owner wants to inherit
common controls provided by another organization information system that is categorized moderate
impact.. How does the information system owner ensure that the common controls will provide
adequate protection for the information system?

Hybrid - correct answer ✔✔A large organization has a documented information system policy that has
been reviewed and approved by senior officials and is readily available to all organizational staff. This
