I’m pretty certain that TCSEC is the correct answer. It’s the one that sets the criteria for evaluating security in systems, right?

I remember learning about FIPS in my security class, so I think that's the best option here. It's a standard set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for computer security.

Okay, let me think this through. TCSEC and FITSAF both sound like they could be related to security standards, but I'm not familiar with them. I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.
