CISM Domain 1 Practice Questions and Answers (100% Pass)

Which of the following is the MOST effective way to ensure that noncompliance to

information security standards is resolved?

a. Periodic audits of noncompliant areas

b. An ongoing vulnerability scanning program

c. Annual security awareness training


d. Regular reports to the audit committee - Answer✔️✔️-D is the correct answer.


Justification

Periodic audits can be effective but only when combined with reporting.

Vulnerability scanning has little to do with noncompliance with standards.

Training can increase management's awareness regarding information security, but

awareness training is generally not as compelling to management as having

individual names highlighted on a compliance report.

Reporting noncompliance to the audit committee is the most effective way to have

enforcement for concerned parties to take the proper action in order to comply.

What activity should the information security manager perform FIRST after

finding that compliance with a set of standards is weak?

a. Initiate the exception process.

b. Modify policy to address the risk.

c. Increase compliance enforcement.


d. Perform a risk assessment. - Answer✔️✔️-D is the correct answer.


Justification

The exception process can be used after assessing the noncompliance risk and

determining whether compensating controls are required.

Modifying policy is not necessary unless there is no applicable standard and policy.

It is not appropriate to increase compliance enforcement until the information

security manager has determined the extent of the risk posed by weak compliance.

The first action after finding noncompliance with particular standards should be to

determine the risk to the enterprise and the potential impact (for both compliance

and security risk).

Management requests that an information security manager determine which

regulations regarding disclosure, reporting and privacy are the most important for

the enterprise to address. The recommendations for addressing these legal and

regulatory requirements will be MOST useful if based on which of the following

choices?

a. The extent of enforcement actions

b. The probability and consequences

c. The sanctions for noncompliance


d. The amount of personal liability - Answer✔️✔️-B is the correct answer.


Justification

The extent of enforcement is a measure of probability. Without knowing the scope

of consequences, probability cannot be viewed in context.

Legal and regulatory requirements should be treated as any other risk to the

enterprise, calculated as the probability of enforcement and the magnitude of

possible sanctions (impact or consequences).

Sanctions or impact must be considered in the context of the enforcement

mechanisms. If sanctions have less probability of being implemented due to lax

enforcement, their severity poses lower risk to the enterprise than if they are

widely enforced.

Except in extreme cases of fraud or other criminal activity, liability for regulatory

sanctions generally lies with senior management and the board of directors. It is

not a driving factor in the evaluation of regulatory requirements.

How should an information security manager balance the potentially conflicting

requirements of an international enterprise's security standards with local

regulation?

a .Give organizational standards preference over local regulations.

b. Follow local regulations only.

c. Make the enterprise aware of those standards where local regulations cause

conflicts.


d .Negotiate a local version of the enterprise standards. - Answer✔️✔️-D is the

correct answer.

Justification

Organizational standards must be subordinate to local regulations.

It would be incorrect to follow local regulations only, because there must be

recognition of organizational requirements.

Making an enterprise aware of standards is a sensible step but is not a complete

solution.

Negotiating a local version of the enterprise's standards is the most effective

compromise in this situation. Regulations cannot be changed by the enterprise, and
