I have a vague memory that MAC is more about system-enforced policies, so it can't be that one.

I practiced a similar question, and I believe DAC is the right choice because it emphasizes the owner's control over access.

I'm pretty confident the answer is Discretionary Access Control (DAC). That's the model where the owner has control over who can access the object and what they can do with it.

Okay, let me think this through. The key information here is that the owner of the object decides the access privileges. That sounds like Discretionary Access Control (DAC) to me.
