Separation of duties is a preventive administrative control, not a detective one. Rotation of duties is detective as it can uncover irregularities when someone new takes over the role.
Among the options provided, the choice that is NOT a form of detective administrative control is:
C. Separation of duties
Separation of duties is primarily a preventive administrative control used to distribute tasks and responsibilities among multiple individuals to prevent a single person from having complete control over critical functions. Detective controls focus on identifying or detecting issues after they occur, such as security reviews and audits, rotation of duties, and required vacations, aiming to discover problems or irregularities that may have already happened.
Rotation of duties is not typically considered a form of detective administrative control. Instead, it is a preventive control measure that falls under the category of administrative controls. Rotation of duties involves periodically changing an employee's job responsibilities or tasks to reduce the risk of fraud or errors.
That's correct, Separation of Duties is Preventive, but so are Rotation of Duties and Required Vacations. I think this question is ambiguous.
