Wait, are we sure it's not just for detection?

I could be wrong, but I thought corrective controls were more about fixing issues after they happen, not preventing access.

This feels similar to a practice question I did on physical security controls. I think preventive makes sense here.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about deterrent controls being more about discouraging attempts rather than stopping them outright.

I think biometric access is more about stopping unauthorized access, so it might be preventive?

Okay, let's see. The manager approves for up to 3 weeks, and then the director and HR get involved for longer requests. So I'm thinking a combination of a reporting structure and an authority matrix might work here.

DHCP options could be a good choice since it's centralized, but I'm not sure if that works for both UEFI and legacy BIOS VMs. I'll have to think this through.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The different variables in the formulas are throwing me off. I'll need to re-read the question and definitions to make sure I understand what each term represents.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know SOA has something to do with software architecture, but I can't remember the exact meaning. I'll have to think about it for a bit.
