Which of the following provides the overall conceptual basis in the design of an appropriate security program?

    Correct Answer: C

    A reference model provides the overall conceptual basis in the design of an appropriate security program. It offers a framework and guidelines to ensure all necessary aspects of security are considered and integrated. Other models, such as the asset model or zone model, deal with specific aspects or structures within a system, but the reference model serves as the foundational guide.
