• Chose AF3

  A and F are correct. This scenario covers Objective 4.2 "security implications of proper hardware, software, and DATA asset management" - Monitoring/Asset Tracking, Inventory/Enumeration, and Disposal/Decommissioning. A. If a security incident occurs on the device, the correct employee can be notified. F. Company data can be accounted for when the employee leaves the organization.

  I go with AF

  I asked the AI god after it said A and F, and this is the response I got (ChatGPT o3 advanced reasoning model): Is C plausible? Not really. Software-based MFA tokens (TOTP apps, push agents, etc.) are almost always tied to the user account, not to a specific workstation. Whether or not a laptop carries an inventory sticker has no bearing on enrolling or mapping that token—the enrolment happens in the identity platform and follows the user wherever they log in. Asset tagging is great for ownership, incident response, and off-boarding (A, F), but it doesn’t materially simplify MFA token provisioning, so C isn’t considered a core security benefit here.
