Show answer

Correct answer: D

In a multinational organization, local security regulations should take precedence over global security policy because the requirements of local regulations are mandatory and enforceable by law. Adhering to local regulations is essential to ensure legal compliance within each region the organization operates in. Failure to comply with local regulations could result in legal penalties, financial loss, and reputational damage. Therefore, local regulations must be given priority to meet the legal requirements specific to each locality.

Correct answer: D

To gain a clear understanding of the impact that a new regulatory requirement will have on an organization's information security controls, an information security manager should first perform a gap analysis. A gap analysis will identify the difference between the current state of the organization's security controls and the requirements of the new regulation. This analysis will highlight any deficiencies or areas where the organization is not yet compliant, providing a clear understanding of the changes needed.

Answer choices
Show answer

Correct answer: D

When management changes the enterprise business strategy, the process to be used for evaluating the existing information security controls and selecting new ones is risk management. Risk management involves identifying, assessing, and prioritizing risks to an organization and updating controls to mitigate those risks according to the new business strategy. This process ensures that the information security controls are aligned with the organization's current risk landscape and strategic objectives. Other processes like access control management, change management, and configuration management are important but do not encompass the comprehensive evaluation and selection of controls in the context of changing business strategies.

Stories from the certified

Charles Sirois
Canada
As this was my first certification exam, I was understandably nervous about what to expect. These study materials made the preparation process much easier, and many of the questions closely reflected those on the actual exam.
Lance Chambers
United States
Wasted about a month going through the free dump sites scattered all over reddit, half the answers were wrong and the other half were for a version of the exam that doesn't even exist anymore. Eventually gave in and paid the small fee here, and the difference was night and day.
Alisha Kelly
Italy
Honestly, I had already gone through the official documentation quite thoroughly, but still didn't feel fully confident going in. This helped things finally click for me. I realized I knew the material, but just hadn't connected all the pieces yet.
Casper Claassen
Netherlands
Used this along with Microsoft Learn and the combo worked really well. The practice questions made the stuff I'd read actually stick. Passed first attempt, no complaints from me.
Gabriele Ghesla
Italy
The content is accurate and clearly presented, and it's more affordable than competitors. The team has been incredibly responsive whenever I've had an issue, and they've been open to small changes that improve the platform.
