CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 757

Which of the following BEST describes the process of documenting who has access to evidence?

Answer options

• A. Order of volatility
• B. Chain of custody
• C. Non-repudiation
• D. Admissibility

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, Chain of custody, refers to the documentation process that tracks who has handled evidence to ensure its integrity. Order of volatility relates to the order in which data should be collected, Non-repudiation ensures that a party cannot deny the authenticity of their signature or message, and Admissibility pertains to the legal acceptance of evidence in court, which is not directly related to documenting access.
