Detective Controls: Security measures that are designed to identify and detect unwanted or unauthorized activity within systems and networks. Examples include intrusion detection systems (IDS), log monitoring, security audits, and surveillance cameras. These controls serve to alert an organization to security incidents as they occur or shortly thereafter, enabling a timely response to potential threats.
