I’m a bit confused; I thought there were cases where people could handle both card personalization and PIN printing.

I feel like option C sounds right because it seems logical that personalization and PIN printing should be distinct tasks.

I think A and C are both reasonable answers, but C seems to be the more specific and appropriate response in this case. The auditor should take targeted action if they become aware of a possible illegal act.

I bet John would love to be a one-man show and handle it all, but C is the correct answer. Segregation of duties is the way to go, can't have our little ACME employee going wild with all that payment card power!

Hmm, I'm going with C. Imagine if John was responsible for both the card and the PIN - he could create a master card and steal all the money! Better keep those two tasks separate.

D is the right answer. If John handles PIN printing, he should never be involved in the card shipment process. We don't want him to send the cards and PINs together, that would be a disaster waiting to happen!

I agree with C. John should not be involved in both card personalization and PIN printing to maintain proper segregation of duties. That's basic security 101.
