  2. Programmers are permitted to use the system console.
  3. Console operators are permitted to mount tapes and disks.
  4. Tape operators are permitted to use the system console.

Explanation:

This is an example of Separation of Duties because operators are prevented from modifying the system time which could lead to fraud. Tasks of this nature should be performed by they system administrators.

The following answers are incorrect:
Programmers are permitted to use the system console. Is incorrect because programmers should not be permitted to use the system console, this task should be performed by operators. Allowing programmers access to the system console could allow fraud to occur so this is not an example of Separation of Duties..

To everyone interested in this exam. I can tell you that questions are 90% accurate. Good enough to pass the exam with a good mark. But you need to study all these questions as you get randomized questions from this question bank. I pass my exam and that is what I could share as part of my study experience. Good luck to you all.

Hello @Theguy, I actually used the full version of this exam (they provide the full version in PDF and it comes with an interactive test engine software which is actually pretty good). I managed to study for a month and then booked my exam. I managed to pass my exam. Make sure to practice withe test engine they provide and make sure you get more than 90% passing mark with their test engine. After that you will be ready to book your exam. Best of luck with you studies.
