Selected Answer: B

The correct answer is B. Restricted Information Systems (IS). Here's why: These contractor-owned systems are configured to meet specific government security requirements and are used exclusively for performing work related to a DoD contract that involves handling Federal Contract Information (FCI). Even though the contractor owns them, the systems operate under strict limitations and are considered “restricted” due to their purpose and the sensitivity of the data they process. Let’s break down the other options: A. IoT (Internet of Things): Typically refers to networked devices like sensors, thermostats, cameras—not general-purpose systems used for contract work. C. Test Equipment: This usually means devices used for measurement, diagnostics, or quality assurance—not systems used to handle FCI. D. Government Property: These systems are contractor-owned, not provided by the government, so this doesn’t apply.
