Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a logical process used by programmers to develop software. Which of the following SDLC phases meets the audit objectives defined below: System and data are va

During the Evaluation and Acceptance phase, rigorous testing and auditing are performed to validate that the system and its data are accurate, all user requirements have been satisfied, and all defined control requirements are met, leading to formal acceptance before production. This phase confirms the system's readiness for operational use based on its defined objectives.

The Programming and Training phase focuses on coding the system and preparing users, not on the final validation and audit objectives of meeting requirements.

The Definition phase involves gathering requirements and planning the system, not the actual validation against those requirements.

The Initiation phase is about starting the project and feasibility studies, preceding detailed requirements and system validation.
