I feel like "Centralized" and "Decentralized" actions were mentioned in a different context. I don’t think they fit here.

Okay, let me see if I can figure this out. I know the IACM talks about proactive vs. reactive approaches. Maybe the two proactive ones are something like centralized and decentralized actions and controls? I'm not totally confident, but I'll give it my best shot.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the IACM covers different types of actions and controls, but I can't recall the specific names of the two proactive ones. I'll have to think this through carefully.
