Procedures that ensure that the access control mechanisms correctly implement the security policy
for the entire life cycle of an information system are known as:
A.
Accountability procedures.
B.
Authentication procedures.
C.
Assurance procedures.
D.
Trustworthy procedures.
Explanation:
The correct answer is “Assurance procedures”. Accountability, answer a, refers to the ability to
