Match each security control to the problem it addresses.

Security controls solve different lifecycle problems: stale access, exposed copies, unavailable records, and unmanaged retention.

Why is a written client authorization more useful than a general understanding that a vendor helps the broker?

A vendor relationship explains why work may be needed, but it does not define which client information may be shared. Written scope lets the broker limit the transfer, verify that the recipient matches the approval, and reconstruct the decision later.
