What option best illustrates the concept of a preventive control?

Management can institute a preventive control in the form of increased security over both physical and digital assets, including security measures related to database access.

The best way to describe a preventive control is to assume that by using this control, management can uncover unethical behavior as it has occurred within the firm, so a thirdparty review is an accurate example.

A highquality example of a preventive control would be establishing an ethics hotline or other ethics reporting portal for employees to report potentially unethical activity within the organization.

Implement a data analytics package that would enable management to run reports, create dashboards, and drill down into employee activity when logged into the computer system.
