Government entities commonly establish regulations and minimum security requirements, but private corporations are ultimately responsible for drafting the detailed security policies and selecting the specific technical and administrative controls necessary to comply with those regulations.
True. Laws and regulations such as HIPAA or the FTC Safeguards Rule create mandatory security objectives (for example, requiring appropriate safeguards or certain baseline controls), yet they allow-or require-each private organization to craft its own written security program, policies, and implementation details appropriate to its size, risk, and technology environment. Thus, while compliance is compulsory, the organization-not the government-writes the internal policy language and chooses the exact mechanisms to satisfy the law. "False" is incorrect because it implies that government agencies directly write and impose every internal policy and control, which they do not.
