90 minutes · CompTIA scores 100–900, pass = 750. Ascert's exam simulation draws questions in these same proportions.
A security team is drafting an organization-wide risk assessment schedule and updating the corporate security policy. Which control category do these activities BEST represent?
✗ Technical controls are enforced by systems — firewalls, encryption. Policies and schedules aren't.
✓ Right. Managerial (administrative) controls govern security through planning and oversight — policies, risk assessments, program management.
✗ Operational controls are the day-to-day tasks people execute, not the policies directing them.
✗ Physical controls are locks, fences, and guards — nothing in this scenario touches the building.
