Comparison
| Control mode | Use when | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Preventive | The action must not occur outside policy | May block legitimate delivery if exception paths are weak |
| Detective | Immediate prevention is impractical | Requires reliable alert ownership and remediation |
| Advisory | Teams need guidance rather than enforcement | Low compliance if guidance is not integrated into workflows |
- Version standards and publish migration guidance.
- Document exception scope, owner, expiry, and compensating controls.
