I'm a little unsure about this one. The options seem to cover different aspects of portfolio management, but I'm not totally clear on how they relate to the specific concept of Guardrails. I'll have to review my notes to see if I can narrow it down.

I don't know if just extending the WS-Policy assertion is enough to handle false complaints. It seems like there should be more security measures involved.
