NEW QUESTION # 128
Which of the following BEST measures the efficiency of an incident response process?

  • A. Average gap between actual and agreed response times
  • B. Average time between changes and updating of escalation matrix
  • C. Number of incidents lacking responses
  • D. Number of incidents escalated to management

Answer: A

Explanation:
The average gap between actual and agreed response times is the best measure of the efficiency of an incident response process, as it indicates how well the process meets the service level agreements (SLAs) and the expectations of the stakeholders. A smaller gap means that the process is more efficient and effective in resolving incidents within the agreed time frame. The other options are not the best measures of the efficiency of an incident response process, as they do not directly reflect the performance of the process against the SLAs. The number of incidents escalated to management may indicate the complexity or severity of the incidents, but not the efficiency of the process. The average time between changes and updating of escalation matrix may indicate the agility or flexibility of the process, but not the efficiency of the process. The number of incidents lacking responses may indicate the capacity or availability of the process, but not the efficiency of the process.

NEW QUESTION # 129
Which of the following is the MAIN benefit of involving stakeholders in the selection of key risk indicators
(KRIs)?

  • A. Improving risk awareness
  • B. Optimizing risk treatment decisions
  • C. Leveraging existing metrics
  • D. Obtaining buy-in from risk owners

Answer: A

Explanation:
The main benefit of involving stakeholders in the selection of key risk indicators (KRIs) is improving risk
awareness, as it helps to communicate the risk exposure, appetite, and tolerance of the organization to the
relevant parties. KRIs are metrics that provide information on the level of exposure to a given operational
risk1. By involving stakeholders in the selection of KRIs, the risk practitioner can ensure that the KRIs are
aligned with the stakeholder expectations, needs, and objectives, and that they reflect the most significant
risks that affect the organization. This also helps to foster a risk culture and a shared understanding of risk
among the stakeholders, which can enhance the risk management process and performance. The other options
are not the main benefit of involving stakeholders in the selection of KRIs, although they may be some of the
outcomes or advantages of doing so. Obtaining buy-in from risk owners, leveraging existing metrics, and
optimizing risk treatment decisions are all important aspects of risk management, but they are not the primary
reason for involving stakeholders in the selection of KRIs. References = Key Risk Indicators; Key Risk

    of risk acceptability and using utility-risk ratios if necessary.
  • F. is incorrect. This is not a valid project management and risk management term.
  • G. Risk-reward mentality

Answer: D

NEW QUESTION # 134
A new regulator/ requirement imposes severe fines for data leakage involving customers' personally identifiable information (Pll). The risk practitioner has recommended avoiding the risk. Which of the following actions would BEST align with this recommendation?

  • A. Modify business processes to stop collecting Pll.
  • B. Move Pll to a highly-secured outsourced site.
  • C. Reduce retention periods for Pll data.
  • D. Implement strong encryption for Pll.

Answer: A

Explanation:
Avoiding the risk means eliminating the source of the risk or changing the likelihood or impact to zero. In this case, the source of the risk is the collection of customers' personally identifiable information (Pll), which could be exposed to unauthorized parties and result in severe fines. Therefore, the best action to avoid the risk is to modify the business processes to stop collecting Pll, as this would eliminate the possibility of data leakage and the associated consequences. The other options are not as effective as modifying the business processes, because they do not avoid the risk, but rather mitigate or transfer the risk, as explained below:
A: Reduce retention periods for Pll data is a mitigation action, as it reduces the impact of the risk by minimizing the amount of data that could be leaked and the duration of exposure.
B: Move Pll to a highly-secured outsourced site is a transfer action, as it shifts the responsibility of protecting the data to a third party, but does not eliminate the risk of data leakage.
D: Implement strong encryption for Pll is a mitigation action, as it reduces the likelihood of the risk by making the data unreadable to unauthorized parties, but does not eliminate the risk of data leakage.

Key stakeholders are the individuals or groups who have an interest or influence in the IT risk management process, such as business owners, senior management, IT managers, auditors, regulators, customers, and suppliers. By involving key stakeholders in the IT risk management committee, the committee can benefit from their diverse perspectives, expertise, and experience, and ensure that the IT risk management decisions are aligned with the business objectives, priorities, and expectations. Key stakeholders can also provide valuable input, feedback, and support for the IT risk management activities, and help communicate and implement the IT risk management decisions across the organization.

You are the project manager of your enterprise. You have introduced an intrusion detection system for the control. You have identified a warning of violation of security policies of your enterprise. What type of control is an intrusion detection system (IDS)?

  • A. Recovery
  • B. Detective
  • C. Preventative
  • D. Corrective

Answer: B

Section: Volume C
Explanation:
An intrusion detection system (IDS) is a device or software application that monitors network and/or system activities for malicious activities or policy violations and produces reports to a Management Station. Some systems may attempt to stop an intrusion attempt but this is neither required nor expected of a monitoring system. Intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS) are primarily focused on identifying possible incidents, logging information about them, and reporting attempts. In addition, organizations use IDPS for other purposes, such as identifying problems with security policies, documenting existing threats, and deterring individuals from violating security policies.
As IDS detects and gives warning when the violation of security policies of the enterprise occurs, it is a detective control.
Incorrect Answers:
B: These controls make effort to reduce the impact of a threat from problems discovered by detective controls.
As IDS only detects but not reduce the impact, hence it is not a corrective control.
C: As IDS only detects the problem when it occurs and not prior of its occurrence, it is not preventive control.
D: These controls make efforts to overcome the impact of the incident on the business, hence IDS is not a recovery control.
