A site survey is the formal process used to determine the required number, placement, and configuration of wireless access points (APs). Security+ SY0-701 states that site surveys measure RF propagation, identify dead zones, account for building materials, detect interference sources, and evaluate coverage overlap. This information allows network engineers to deploy the fewest APs necessary while still ensuring full coverage.
Although heat maps (C) are generated as a result of a site survey, they are visualization tools-not the actual survey process. A signal locator (A) is not a standardized tool in wireless planning. WPA3 (B) is a wireless security protocol and has no impact on access point planning or coverage optimization.
A full site survey ensures optimal AP placement to balance coverage, performance, and cost-exactly the concern described in the scenario.
Thus, the correct answer is D: Site survey.

Detailed Explanation:Standard operating procedures (SOPs) outline the steps to be followed to maintain a secure baseline, such as testing and deploying patches while minimizing risk to the system. Reference:

An application allow list is a security technique that specifies which applications are authorized to run on a system and blocks all other applications. An application allow list can best protect against an employee inadvertently installing malware on a company system because it prevents the execution of any unauthorized or malicious software, such as viruses, worms, trojans, ransomware, or spyware. An application allow list can also reduce the attack surface and improve the performance of the system.

Aconflict of interest (B)arises when personal relationships or interests could potentially influence professional decisions. In this case, the CFO's friendship with the vendor could improperly affect the procurement decision- making process.
This scenario falls underDomain 5.3: Explain the importance of frameworks, policies, procedures, and controls-specifically under"Personnel policies (e.g., conflict of interest, mandatory vacations, job rotation)." Reference: CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 Objectives, Domain 5.3 - "Personnel policies: Conflict of interest."

A two-person integrity security control is implemented to minimize the risk of errors or unauthorized actions.
This control ensures that at least two individuals are involved in critical operations, which helps to verify the accuracy of the process and prevents unauthorized users from acting alone. It's a security measure commonly used in sensitive operations, like financial transactions or access to critical systems, to ensure accountability and accuracy.
