I answered C, but after looking up maturity models and realizing this was a case of answer written wrongly, I find A is the correct answer. C is written wrong "Alignment of the vendor's business objectives with enterprise security goals" Should be "Alignment of the vendor's security goals with Enterprise Business Objectives" Maturity of internal controls is highly important, look up maturity models. Could be me, but this seems to be the first quesiton that seemed like a trick question if you didnt properly read it. Please correct me if I am wrong.

C- helps you select a vendor that matches your business requirements. In the absence of 'C' option 'A' is useless.
