Free ISACA CISM Real Questions (page: 59)

Risk assessment is MOST effective when performed:

  1. at the beginning of security program development.
  2. on a continuous basis.
  3. while developing the business case for the security program.
  4. during the business change process.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Risk assessment needs to be performed on a continuous basis because of organizational and technical changes. Risk assessment must take into account all significant changes in order to be effective.



Which of the following is the MAIN reason for performing risk assessment on a continuous basis'?

  1. Justification of the security budget must be continually made.
  2. New vulnerabilities are discovered every day.
  3. The risk environment is constantly changing.
  4. Management needs to be continually informed about emerging risks.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The risk environment is impacted by factors such as changes in technology, and business strategy. These changes introduce new threats and vulnerabilities to the organization. As a result, risk assessment should be performed continuously. Justification of a budget should never be the main reason for performing a risk assessment. New vulnerabilities should be managed through a patch management process. Informing management about emerging risks is important, but is not the main driver for determining when a risk assessment should be performed.



There is a time lag between the time when a security vulnerability is first published, and the time when a patch is delivered. Which of the following should be carried out FIRST to mitigate the risk during this time period?

  1. Identify the vulnerable systems and apply compensating controls
  2. Minimize the use of vulnerable systems
  3. Communicate the vulnerability to system users
  4. Update the signatures database of the intrusion detection system (IDS)

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The best protection is to identify the vulnerable systems and apply compensating controls until a patch is installed. Minimizing the use of vulnerable systems and communicating the vulnerability to system users could be compensating controls but would not be the first course of action. Choice D does not make clear the timing of when the intrusion detection system (IDS) signature list would be updated to accommodate the vulnerabilities that are not yet publicly known. Therefore, this approach should not always be considered as the first option.



Which of the following security activities should be implemented in the change management process to identify key vulnerabilities introduced by changes?

  1. Business impact analysis (BIA)
  2. Penetration testing
  3. Audit and review
  4. Threat analysis

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Penetration testing focuses on identifying vulnerabilities. None of the other choices would identify vulnerabilities introduced by changes.



Which of the following techniques MOST clearly indicates whether specific risk-reduction controls should be implemented?

  1. Countermeasure cost-benefit analysis
  2. Penetration testing
  3. Frequent risk assessment programs
  4. Annual loss expectancy (ALE) calculation

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

In a countermeasure cost-benefit analysis, the annual cost of safeguards is compared with the expected cost of loss. This can then be used to justify a specific control measure. Penetration testing may indicate the extent of a weakness but, by itself, will not establish the cost/benefit of a control. Frequent risk assessment programs will certainly establish what risk exists but will not determine the maximum cost of controls. Annual loss expectancy (ALE) is a measure which will contribute to the value of the risk but. alone, will not justify a control.

just passed the az-500 exam this last friday. most of the questions in this exam dumps are in the exam. i bought the full version and noticed some of the questions which were answered wrong in the free version are all corrected in the full version. this site is good but i wish the had it in an interactive version like a test engine simulator.

answer to 134 is casb. while data loss prevention is the goal, in order to implement dlp in cloud applications you need to deploy a casb.
