I believe it is B and F because the CCTV will give you the ability to monitor the data center and its presence and signs are a deterrent.

B. Deterrent: The CCTV system and the signs warning of surveillance are deterrent controls because they are designed to discourage malicious or unauthorized actions. The idea is that people will be less likely to engage in inappropriate behavior if they know they are being watched or recorded. D. Directive: The signs informing people that they may be filmed are also directive controls. Directive controls are intended to communicate policies, rules, or expectations to individuals, in this case, warning them about the surveillance and informing them of the monitoring policy. This sets a clear guideline for behavior in the area. Why not F. Detective: Detective controls are designed to detect incidents or breaches, such as intrusion detection systems (IDS) or security cameras for identifying events. The CCTV system could be considered a detective control if it is used to record and analyze activities for incidents, but the signs are more related to deterrence and direction.

Deterrent: The signs serve as a deterrent by discouraging potential intruders or malicious activities through the awareness of surveillance. Detective: The CCTV system itself acts as a detective control by monitoring and recording activities, which can be reviewed to detect and investigate incidents.

I believe and what I will go with. B. Deterrent: The CCTV system and signs serve to deter potential unauthorized activities or behavior by making individuals aware that they are being monitored. The idea is that the possibility of being recorded will discourage malicious or inappropriate actions. D. Directive: Posting signs about being filmed can also be considered a directive control. It communicates rules or policies to individuals about their behavior and the monitoring system in place, guiding how they should act within the data center.

CCTV is detective, its there to detect incidents. Some CCTV are hidden so people may not even know its there so it doesn't stop them but it can see them and alert the security team.
