FISMA seems more about federal information security policies, so I doubt it’s the right answer. I think it’s probably between the CFAA and the Computer Security Act.

I feel pretty confident about this one. The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act is the key law that defines and prohibits unauthorized access to computers, so that's got to be the right answer here.

Okay, let me see if I can break this down. The question is asking which act provides a clear statement on proscribed computer-related activities to law enforcement, computer owners, and potential criminals. Based on that, I think the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act is the best answer.
