Exam 712-50 topic 1 question 338 discussion

Voting A because of the key words "addressing Information Security formally and consistently in this organization" The question directly asked for formal, answer A has formal. While C is a good answer, a steering committee isn't very formal in addressing the needs, AND this company is small so it's probably not realistic.

Executive Sponsorship is Crucial: A steering committee provides high-level support and guidance for the information security program. It ensures that security is viewed as a strategic business priority and not just a technical concern. Resource Allocation: The committee will be instrumental in securing the necessary budget and resources for security initiatives. Accountability and Alignment: The committee will help drive accountability and ensure that security initiatives are aligned with the overall business objectives of the growing retail merchant. Why not A: While crucial, this step is more effective after establishing executive sponsorship and support. The steering committee will guide the definition of roles and responsibilities.
