Is the following statement accurate regarding Separation of Duties (SoD)?

Solution: An SoD policy can define mitigating controls.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Yes, an SoD policy can define mitigating controls. Mitigating controls are measures put in place to reduce the risk of having conflicting duties. For example, if it's not possible to completely segregate duties due to resource constraints or other business factors, mitigating controls such as enhanced auditing, periodic reviews, or dual approvals can be defined to manage the risk. SailPoint IdentityNow allows for the creation of SoD policies that include such mitigating controls to ensure compliance with security and governance requirements.

Key Reference from SailPoint Documentation:

Mitigating Controls in SoD Policies: SailPoint supports the definition of mitigating controls within SoD policies to manage and reduce risks when full separation of duties cannot be achieved.

I'm not so sure. I lean towards B) No. SoD is more about role separation, not controls.

I thought SoD was more about roles and responsibilities rather than defining controls, so I lean towards "No."

I feel like the answer might be "Yes" because SoD could imply some level of control, but I’m not entirely confident.

I remember a practice question about SoD and controls, but I can't recall if mitigating controls were specifically mentioned.

I think SoD policies are meant to prevent fraud, but I'm not sure if they can actually define mitigating controls.
