ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
While compiling the System Security Plan, you must classify each proposed safeguard as management, operational, or technical. Which activity below is BEST characterized as a management control according to NIST SP 800-53?
Maintaining a visitor escort policy for the data center
Performing an independent security assessment before granting an authorization to operate
Implementing mandatory multifactor authentication for privileged logons
Enabling host-based intrusion prevention on all servers
Independent security assessments are part of the Security Assessment and Authorization (CA) family, which NIST categorizes as a management control because it focuses on governing risk and ensuring the system is operating within defined security parameters. Multifactored authentication and host-based intrusion prevention are technical controls implemented through technology, while escorting visitors is an operational control executed primarily by personnel and physical procedures.
