Explanation
The primary objective of information asset classification is C. Risk management. This is because information asset classification is a process of assigning labels or categories to information assets based on their value, sensitivity, and criticality to the organization. Information asset classification helps the organization to identify, assess, and treat the risks associated with the information assets, and to apply the appropriate level of protection and controls to them. Information asset classification also helps the organization to comply with the legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations regarding the information assets, and to optimize the use of resources and costs for information security.

Explanation
Since the password for the shared administrative account was obtained through guessing, it is probable that there were multiple unsuccessful logon attempts before the correct password was deduced. Searching the logs for invalid logon attempts could, therefore, lead to the discovery of this unauthorized activity. Because the account is shared, reviewing the logs for concurrent logons would not reveal unauthorized activity since concurrent usage is common in this situation. Write access violations would not necessarily be observed since the information was merely copied and not altered. Firewall logs would not necessarily contain information regarding logon attempts.

A skills inventory would help identify- the available resources, any gaps and the training requirements for developing resources. Proficiency testing is useful but only with regard to specific technical skills. Job descriptions would not be as useful since they may be out of date or not sufficiently detailed. An organization chart would not provide the details necessary to determine the resources required for this activity.

Explanation:
An intrusion detection system (IDS) should be placed on a screened subnet, which is a demilitarized zone (DMZ). Placing it on the Internet side of the firewall would leave it defenseless. The same would be tmc of placing it on the external router, if such a thing were feasible. Since firewalls should be installed on hardened servers with minimal services enabled, it would be inappropriate to store the IDS on the same physical dcvice.
