Why each option
General controls embedded in IT processes and services include overarching frameworks like change management and systems development, which govern how IT is managed and developed.
Completeness is an application control, focusing on ensuring all transactions are captured and processed, not a general control over IT processes.
Change management is a general control that ensures all modifications to IT systems, infrastructure, and applications are controlled, documented, tested, and approved, preventing unauthorized changes and maintaining system integrity.
Systems development is a general control encompassing the processes and methodologies used for designing, acquiring, developing, testing, and implementing new IT systems, ensuring they meet business requirements and security standards.
Accuracy is an application control, ensuring that data and transactions are correctly processed and free from material errors, rather than a general control over IT processes.
