Selected Answer: A
Detective controls are designed to identify and detect unwanted events or behaviors. In this case, the organization needs to determine how many employees are accessing the building each day, which can be done using detective controls like access logs, badge scanners, or security cameras that monitor and record employee access.

Selected Answer: A
Question says the intent is to "determine how many employees are accessing the building". It simply wants to monitor and track access. That is detective.

Selected Answer: B
A preventive control is designed to stop a security incident from occurring in the first place. In this case, by determining the number of employees accessing the building, the organization can implement appropriate access controls, such as limiting access to authorized personnel and using access cards or biometric authentication. This proactive measure prevents unauthorized access and potential security breaches.

Incorrect. The question asks, "Org needs to DETERMINE" a preventive control would not help you determine. Only one here that would aide in that would be detective. So, the answer is A
