Explanation
An Information Security Management System (ISMS) is the framework specifically designed to ensure coherence across all organizational security measures - technical, procedural, and organizational - by treating them as an integrated whole rather than isolated controls. Option B, a rootkit, is malicious software used by attackers to maintain hidden access to a system, making it a threat rather than a security governance tool. Option C, security regulations for special government information, is a narrow policy category that applies only to classified government contexts, not a holistic management framework applicable to organizations broadly. To remember this, think of ISMS as the "glue" that holds all security measures together - the ISO/IEC 27001 standard formalizes it, so if you see "coherence," "integrated," or "organization-wide security," ISMS is your answer.
