From an information security manager perspective, what is the immediate benefit of clearly-defined roles and responsibilities?
A . Enhanced policy compliance
B . Improved procedure flows
C . Segregation of duties
D . Better accountability
Answer: D
Explanation:
Without well-defined roles and responsibilities, there cannot be accountability. Choice A is incorrect because policy compliance requires adequately defined accountability first and therefore is a byproduct. Choice B is incorrect because people can be assigned to execute procedures that are not well designed. Choice C is incorrect because segregation of duties is not automatic, and roles may still include conflicting duties.
