It's B. RBAC: "Hey, you're on the Sales team, not the Dev team. We're denying your access to the code repository now.". Patching Policy: "Hey, no more choosing when you want Windows updates. You now get them on the second Tuesday of the month when they're released."

Gonna go with B over A, since employee's role changed, it makes sense he should no longer have access to the code anymore to make changes thus RBAC.

Selected Answer: B
Role-based access control (RBAC) is a method of regulating access to computer or network resources based on the roles of individual users within an enterprise. In this context, roles are defined according to job competency, authority, and responsibility within the enterprise. Implementing RBAC will ensure that users only have the access necessary to fulfill their current roles. So, if a user changes roles, their access permissions change accordingly, preventing them from accessing systems or performing actions that are not relevant to their current role.

Selected Answer: A
GPT says B. ExamTopics says B. So it's probably B, but A also seems like it could be the answer cause patches get reviewed and new code being pushed would be reviewed and denied if noticed it was out of scope of the current sprint.
