Selected Answer: D
correct answer is D. Performing intrusion testing on a regular basis. Justification: Intrusion testing, also known as penetration testing, is a control measure carried out on systems software to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses that could be exploited by unauthorized individuals. It involves simulating an attack on the system to assess its security and identify potential areas of improvement. By regularly performing intrusion testing, an organization can proactively identify and address security weaknesses in its systems software, thereby enhancing the overall security posture.

In the reference document, it clearly shows that D is under Systems Software Controls, and C is under Software Development Controls. The question asked which is a Systems Software Control (not development) - so it's definitely D
