Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Key verification is a control method in which two people enter the same data into a system and the system verifies that they match. This helps to reduce the likelihood of errors or fraud due to a single person's mistake or intentional misconduct. Online prompting involves guiding the user through a series of steps or questions to help prevent errors, but it does not involve a second person verifying the input. Computer matching procedures are used to compare data in different systems or sources, and redundancy checks involve verifying that data was accurately transmitted or processed multiple times.
