Even ChatGPT doesn't know. LOL Both Option B and Option C could be considered valid depending on the specific context and focus of managerial control. In the realm of information security, Option C might be more specific to the security domain, whereas Option B encompasses a broader range of managerial control functions, including those related to security awareness and training. Therefore, both Option B and Option C could be correct, and the choice may depend on the emphasis or perspective within the context of managerial control.

Selected Answer: A
After looking at professormesser's SY0-601 Security+ 5.1 video he mentions "We put security controls into three major categories. The first category is a managerial control. This is a control that focuses on the design of the security or the policy implementation associated with the security. We might have a set of security policies for our organization or set of standard operating procedures that everyone is expected to follow." With the key words design of security or policy implementation A. would be the most likely as it uses the same key words "design and implement".
