Residual risk is key in Security Accreditation, no doubt!

I'm leaning towards Security Accreditation too, but I could see how someone might confuse it with the Security Certification phase.

Continuous Monitoring seems like it would be involved, but I don't recall it being the one that prepares the final accreditation package.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think Security Certification is more about the actual testing, not the final package.

I think the phase that deals with residual risk is Security Accreditation, but I'm not entirely sure.

Okay, I know the chmod command is used to change file permissions, and the numbers represent the permissions. I think I can figure this out.

This one seems pretty straightforward. I'm pretty confident the answer is C - Java bytecode can run on any platform that has the Java Runtime Environment.
