CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 301

A company installed cameras and added signs to alert visitors that they are being recorded. Which of the following controls did the company implement? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Directive
• B. Deterrent
• C. Preventive
• D. Detective
• E. Corrective
• F. Technical

Correct answer: B, D

Explanation

The correct answers are B and D because deterrent controls, like signage, aim to discourage unwanted behavior, while detective controls, such as cameras, are meant to monitor and record activities. The other options do not apply as directive controls provide instructions, preventive controls stop incidents from occurring, corrective controls address incidents after they happen, and technical controls involve technology solutions.
