Which security control type is exemplified by organizational security policies and guidelines that direct the behavior of users and systems toward compliance?
Preventive control
Corrective control
Directive control
Detective control
Security policies, standards, and guidelines do not directly stop or detect attacks. Instead, they provide direction by defining required behaviors and rules. Because they set expectations and guide how people and systems should act, they are categorized as directive controls. Detective controls identify incidents after they occur, preventive controls stop incidents, and corrective controls restore normal operations.
