Wait, is 'Moderate' the level of impact when your coffee is a little too strong? Asking for a friend who may or may not have had a rough morning.

Haha, I bet the exam writers thought they were being so clever by including 'Moderate' as an option. Nice try, but FIPS 199 is all about High, Medium, and Low!

The correct answers are A, B, and C. FIPS 199 defines those three levels of potential impact. I'm confident about that.

I remember studying this for the exam. The levels help determine the security categorization of information systems.

FIPS 199 definitely covers High, Medium, and Low levels of potential impact. I'm pretty sure Moderate is also included, but I'll double-check that.
