Decoy files, often referred to as honcypots, are the best choice for diverting a hacker away from critical files and alerting security of the hacker's presence. Firewalls and bastion hosts attempt to keep the hacker out, while screened subnets or demilitarized zones (DM/.s) provide a middle ground between the trusted internal network and the external untrusted Internet.

Laws and regulations provide the most useful input to determine the organization's information security strategy because they define the legal and compliance requirements and obligations that the organization must adhere to, and guide the development and implementation of the security policies and controls that support them. Security budget is not a useful input to determine the organization's information security strategy because it does not reflect the organization's security needs or goals, but rather a resource to enable the security activities and initiatives. Risk register is not a useful input to determine the organization's information security strategy because it does not reflect the organization's security vision or mission, but rather a tool to identify and manage the security risks. Risk score is not a useful input to determine the organization's information security strategy because it does not reflect the organization's security priorities or objectives, but rather a measure of the level of risk exposure or performance.
