I thought the Information Owner had more of a say in decisions.

I feel like the Information Owner could also play an advisory role, especially regarding data management, but I’m a bit confused about the specifics.

I practiced a similar question where the Authorizing Official was mentioned as a key decision-maker, but I don't recall them being an advisor.

I think the CIO might be the advisor here, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember something about their role involving strategic decisions.

I thought the ISSE was more technical and focused on implementation rather than advising, but I could be wrong.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem similar, and I want to make sure I understand the difference between them. Maybe I'll jot down a quick note about each option to help me decide.

Hmm, I'm not too sure about the difference between unallocated and unlicensed installs. I'll need to think this through carefully.
