Option A: Decentralization of data typically increases the complexity of access controls as data is
spread across various locations and systems.
Option B: Regular data inventories help understand what data exists and where it is stored, but they
do not directly reduce the need for different types of access controls.
Option C: Standardization of technology simplifies the IT environment, making it easier to implement
and manage consistent access controls across the organization.
Option D: An increased number of remote employees generally requires more robust and varied
access controls to manage the different ways remote access is secured.
