NEW QUESTION # 68
Scenario 3: Socket Inc is a telecommunications company offering mainly wireless products and services. It uses MongoDB. a document model database that offers high availability, scalability, and flexibility.
Last month, Socket Inc. reported an information security incident. A group of hackers compromised its MongoDB database, because the database administrators did not change its default settings, leaving it without a password and publicly accessible.
Fortunately. Socket Inc. performed regular information backups in their MongoDB database, so no information was lost during the incident. In addition, a syslog server allowed Socket Inc. to centralize all logs in one server. The company found out that no persistent backdoor was placed and that the attack was not initiated from an employee inside the company by reviewing the event logs that record user faults and exceptions.
To prevent similar incidents in the future, Socket Inc. decided to use an access control system that grants access to authorized personnel only. The company also implemented a control in order to define and implement rules for the effective use of cryptography, including cryptographic key management, to protect the database from unauthorized access The implementation was based on all relevant agreements, legislation, and regulations, and the information classification scheme. To improve security and reduce the administrative efforts, network segregation using VPNs was proposed.
Lastly, Socket Inc. implemented a new system to maintain, collect, and analyze information related to information security threats, and integrate information security into project management.
Can Socket Inc. find out that no persistent backdoor was placed and that the attack was initiated from an employee inside the company by reviewing event logs that record user faults and exceptions? Refer to scenario 3.
- A. No, Socket Inc should also have reviewed event logs that record user activities
- B. Yes. Socket Inc. can find out that no persistent backdoor was placed by only reviewing user faults and exceptions logs
- C. No, Socket Inc. should have reviewed all the logs on the syslog server
Answer: A
Explanation:
Event logs are records of events that occur in a system or network, such as user actions, faults, exceptions, errors, warnings, or security incidents. They can provide valuable information for monitoring, auditing, and troubleshooting purposes. Event logs can be categorized into different types, depending on the source and nature of the events. For example, user activity logs record the actions performed by users, such as login, logout, file access, or command execution. User fault and exception logs record the errors oranomalies that occur due to user input or behavior, such as invalid data entry, unauthorized access attempts, or system crashes. In scenario 3, Socket Inc. used a syslog server to centralize all logs in one server, which is a good practice for log management. However, to find out that no persistent backdoor was placed and that the attack was not initiated from an employee inside the company, Socket Inc. should have reviewed not only the user fault and exception logs, but also the user activity logs. The user activity logs could reveal any suspicious or malicious actions performed by the hackers or the employees, such as creating, modifying, or deleting files, executing commands, or installing software. By reviewing both types of logs, Socket Inc. could have a more complete picture of the incident and its root cause. Reviewing all the logs on the syslog server might not be necessary or feasible, as some logs might be irrelevant or too voluminous to analyze.

NEW QUESTION # 69
According to ISO/IEC 270G1. why shall organizations document nonconformities?
- A. To provide evidence of regulations set by external sources that need to be followed by the organization
- B. To provide evidence of the requirements set by internal audit after reviewing their audit reports
- C. To provide evidence of the results of the corrective actions and the nature of the nonconformities
Answer: C
NEW QUESTION # 70
Which of the following is NOT part of the steps required by ISO/IEC 27001 that an organization must take when a nonconformity is detected?
- A. Communicate the details of the nonconformity to every employee of the organization and suspend the employee that caused the nonconformity
- B. React to the nonconformity, take action to control and correct it. and deal with its consequences
- C. Evaluate the need for action to eliminate the causes of the nonconformity so that it does not recur or occur elsewhere
Answer: A
Explanation:
According to the ISO/IEC 27001 : 2022 Lead Implementer course, the steps required by ISO/IEC 27001 that an organization must take when a nonconformity is detected are as follows1:
* React to the nonconformity, take action to control and correct it, and deal with its consequences
* Evaluate the need for action to eliminate the causes of the nonconformity so that it does not recur or occur elsewhere
* Implement any action needed
* Review the effectiveness of the corrective action
* Make changes to the information security management system (ISMS) if necessary Therefore, communicating the details of the nonconformity to every employee of the organization and suspending the employee that caused the nonconformity is not part of the steps required by ISO/IEC
27001. This option is not only unnecessary, but also potentially harmful, as it could violate the principles of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information, as well as the human rights and dignity of the employee involved2. Instead, the organization should follow the established procedures for reporting, recording, and analyzing nonconformities, and ensure that the corrective actions are appropriate, proportional, and fair3.

NEW QUESTION # 71
Scenario 8: SunDee is an American biopharmaceutical company, headquartered in California, the US. It specializes in developing novel human therapeutics, with a focus on cardiovascular diseases, oncology, bone health, and inflammation. The company has had an information security management system (ISMS) based on SO/IEC 27001 in place for the past two years. However, it has not monitored or measured the performance and effectiveness of its ISMS and conducted management reviews regularly Just before the recertification audit, the company decided to conduct an internal audit. It also asked most of their staff to compile the written individual reports of the past two years for their departments. This left the Production Department with less than the optimum workforce, which decreased the company's stock.
Tessa was SunDee's internal auditor. With multiple reports written by 50 different employees, the internal audit process took much longer than planned, was very inconsistent, and had no qualitative measures whatsoever Tessa concluded that SunDee must evaluate the performance of the ISMS adequately. She defined SunDee's negligence of ISMS performance evaluation as a major nonconformity, so she wrote a nonconformity report including the description of the nonconformity, the audit findings, and recommendations. Additionally, Tessa created a new plan which would enable SunDee to resolve these issues and presented it to the top management Based on scenario 8. does SunDee comply with ISO/IEC 27001 requirements regarding the monitoring and measurement process?
- A. Yes, because the standard requires that the monitoring and measurement phase be conducted every two years
- B. No, because even though the standard does not imply when such a process should be performed, the company must have a monitoring and measurement process in place
- C. Yes. because the standard does not Indicate when the monitoring and measurement phase should be performed
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, clause 9.1, the organization shall determine:
* what needs to be monitored and measured, including information security processes and controls, as well as information security performance and the effectiveness of the ISMS;
* the methods for monitoring, measurement, analysis and evaluation, to ensure valid and reliable results;
* when the monitoring and measurement shall be performed;
* who shall monitor and measure;
* who shall analyze and evaluate the monitoring and measurement results; and
* how the results shall be communicated and used for decision making and improvement.
The organization shall retain documented information as evidence of the monitoring and measurement results.
The standard does not prescribe a specific frequency or method for monitoring and measurement, but it requires the organization to have a defined and documented process that is appropriate to its context, objectives, risks, and opportunities. The organization should also ensure that the monitoring and measurement results are analyzed and evaluated to determine the performance and effectiveness of the ISMS, and to identify any nonconformities, gaps, or improvement opportunities.
In the scenario, SunDee did not comply with these requirements, as it did not have a monitoring and measurement process in place, and did not monitor or measure the performance and effectiveness of its ISMS regularly. It also did not use valid and reliable methods, or communicate and use the results for improvement.
Therefore, SunDee's negligence of ISMS performance evaluation was a major nonconformity, as Tessa correctly identified.

Scenario 4: TradeB. a commercial bank that has just entered the market, accepts deposits from its clients and offers basic financial services and loans for investments. TradeB has decided to implement an information security management system (ISMS) based on ISO/IEC 27001 Having no experience of a management
[^system implementation, TradeB's top management contracted two experts to direct and manage the ISMS implementation project.
First, the project team analyzed the 93 controls of ISO/IEC 27001 Annex A and listed only the security controls deemed applicable to the company and their objectives Based on this analysis, they drafted the Statement of Applicability. Afterward, they conducted a risk assessment, during which they identified assets, such as hardware, software, and networks, as well as threats and vulnerabilities, assessed potential consequences and likelihood, and determined the level of risks based on three nonnumerical categories (low, medium, and high). They evaluated the risks based on the risk evaluation criteria and decided to treat only the high risk category They also decided to focus primarily on the unauthorized use of administrator rights and system interruptions due to several hardware failures by establishing a new version of the access control policy, implementing controls to manage and control user access, and implementing a control for ICT readiness for business continuity Lastly, they drafted a risk assessment report, in which they wrote that if after the implementation of these security controls the level of risk is below the acceptable level, the risks will be accepted What should TradeB do in order to deal with residual risks? Refer to scenario 4.
- A. TradeB should evaluate, calculate, and document the value of risk reduction following risk treatment
- B. TradeB should immediately implement new controls to treat all residual risks
- C. TradeB should accept the residual risks only above the acceptance level
Answer: A
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001 : 2022 Lead Implementer, residual risk is the risk remaining after risk treatment. Residual risk should be compared with the acceptable level of risk, which is the level of risk that the organization is willing to tolerate. If the residual risk is below the acceptable level of risk, then the risk can be accepted. If the residual risk is above the acceptable level of risk, then additional risk treatment options should be considered. Therefore, TradeB should evaluate, calculate, and document the value of risk reduction following risk treatment, which is the difference between the initial risk and the residual risk. This will help TradeB to determine whether the risk treatment was effective and whether the residual risk is acceptable or not.

To improve security and reduce the administrative efforts, network segregation using VPNs was proposed.
Lastly, Socket Inc. implemented a new system to maintain, collect, and analyze information related to information security threats, and integrate information security into project management.
Based on the scenario above, answer the following question:
Which security control does NOT prevent information security incidents from recurring?
- A. Information backup
- B. Privileged access rights
- C. Segregation of networks
Answer: A
Explanation:
Information backup is a corrective control that aims to restore the information in case of data loss, corruption, or deletion. It does not prevent information security incidents from recurring, but rather mitigates their impact.
The other options are preventive controls that reduce the likelihood of information security incidents by limiting the access to authorized personnel, segregating the networks, and using cryptography. These controls can help Socket Inc. avoid future attacks on its MongoDB database by addressing the vulnerabilities that were exploited by the hackers.

Scenario 6: Skyver offers worldwide shipping of electronic products, including gaming consoles, flat-screen TVs. computers, and printers. In order to ensure information security, the company has decided to implement an information security management system (ISMS) based on the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001.
Colin, the company's best information security expert, decided to hold a training and awareness session for the personnel of the company regarding the information security challenges and other information security- related controls. The session included topics such as Skyver's information security approaches and techniques for mitigating phishing and malware.
One of the participants in the session is Lisa, who works in the HR Department. Although Colin explains the existing Skyver's information security policies and procedures in an honest and fair manner, she finds some of the issues being discussed too technical and does not fully understand the session. Therefore, in a lot of cases, she requests additional help from the trainer and her colleagues Based on the last paragraph of scenario 6, which principles of an effective communication strategy did Colin NOT follow?
- A. Credibility and responsiveness
- B. Transparency and credibility
- C. Appropriateness and clarity
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001 : 2022 Lead Implementer, an effective communication strategy should follow some principles, such as transparency, credibility, appropriateness, clarity, responsiveness, and consistency.
These principles help to ensure that the communication is relevant, accurate, understandable, timely, and coherent. Based on the last paragraph of scenario 6, it seems that Colin did not follow the principles of appropriateness and clarity. Appropriateness means that the communication should be tailored to the needs, expectations, and level of understanding of the audience. Clarity means that the communication should be simple, concise, and precise, avoiding ambiguity and jargon. However, Colin explained the information security issues in a too technical manner, which made Lisa confused and unable to comprehend the session.
Therefore, Colin should have adapted his communication style and content to suit the HR personnel, who may not have the same technical background as him.

- A. No, the report must also specify the audit criteria
- B. No, the report must also specify the root cause of the nonconformity
- C. Yes, the report included all the necessary aspects
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, a nonconformity report is a document that records the details of any deviation from the audit criteria that is identified during an audit2. The audit criteria are the set of policies, procedures, requirements, or specifications that are used as a reference against which audit evidence is compared3. Therefore, a nonconformity report must include the following aspects:
* The description of the nonconformity, which should clearly state what the deviation is, where it occurred, and when it was detected
* The audit findings, which should provide the objective evidence that supports the identification of the nonconformity
* The audit criteria, which should specify the reference document or standard that the nonconformity deviates from
* The recommendations, which should suggest the possible corrective actions or improvements that can be taken to address the nonconformity In scenario 8, Tessa's nonconformity report included the description of the nonconformity, the audit findings, and the recommendations, but it did not specify the audit criteria. Therefore, the report did not include all the necessary aspects and was incomplete.

NEW QUESTION # 77
Scenario 5: Operaze is a small software development company that develops applications for various companies around the world. Recently, the company conducted a risk assessment to assess the information security risks that could arise from operating in a digital landscape. Using different testing methods, including penetration Resting and code review, the company identified some issues in its ICT systems, including improper user permissions, misconfigured security settings, and insecure network configurations. To resolve these issues and enhance information security, Operaze decided to implement an information security management system (ISMS) based on ISO/IEC 27001.
Considering that Operaze is a small company, the entire IT team was involved in the ISMS implementation project. Initially, the company analyzed the business requirements and the internal and external environment, identified its key processes and activities, and identified and analyzed the interested parties In addition, the top management of Operaze decided to Include most of the company's departments within the ISMS scope.
The defined scope included the organizational and physical boundaries. The IT team drafted an information security policy and communicated it to all relevant interested parties In addition, other specific policies were developed to elaborate on security issues and the roles and responsibilities were assigned to all interested parties.
Following that, the HR manager claimed that the paperwork created by ISMS does not justify its value and the implementation of the ISMS should be canceled However, the top management determinedthat this claim was invalid and organized an awareness session to explain the benefits of the ISMS to all interested parties.
Operaze decided to migrate Its physical servers to their virtual servers on third-party infrastructure. The new cloud computing solution brought additional changes to the company Operaze's top management, on the other hand, aimed to not only implement an effective ISMS but also ensure the smooth running of the ISMS operations. In this situation, Operaze's top management concluded that the services of external experts were required to implement their information security strategies. The IT team, on the other hand, decided to initiate a change in the ISMS scope and implemented the required modifications to the processes of the company.
Based on scenario 5. in which category of the interested parties does the MR manager of Operaze belong?
- A. Both A and B
- B. Positively influenced interested parties, because the ISMS will increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the HR Department
- C. Negatively influenced interested parties, because the HR Department will deal with more documentation
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001, interested parties are those who can affect, be affected by, or perceive themselves to be affected by the organization's information security activities, products, or services.
Interested parties can be classified into four categories based on their influence and interest in the ISMS:
* Positively influenced interested parties: those who benefit from the ISMS and support its implementation and operation
* Negatively influenced interested parties: those who are adversely affected by the ISMS and oppose its implementation and operation
* High-interest interested parties: those who have a strong interest in the ISMS and its outcomes, regardless of their influence
* Low-interest interested parties: those who have a weak interest in the ISMS and its outcomes, regardless of their influence In scenario 5, the HR manager of Operaze belongs to the category of negatively influenced interested parties, because he/she perceives that the ISMS will create more paperwork and documentation for the HR Department, and therefore opposes its implementation and operation. The HR manager does not benefit from the ISMS and does not support its objectives and requirements.

Scenario 7: InfoSec is a multinational corporation headquartered in Boston, MA, which provides professional electronics, gaming, and entertainment services. After facing numerous information security incidents, InfoSec has decided to establish teams and implement measures to prevent potential incidents in the future Emma, Bob. and Anna were hired as the new members of InfoSec's information security team, which consists of a security architecture team, an incident response team (IRT) and a forensics team Emma's job is to create information security plans, policies, protocols, and training to prepare InfoSec to respond to incidents effectively Emma and Bob would be full-time employees of InfoSec, whereas Anna was contracted as an external consultant.
Bob, a network expert, will deploy a screened subnet network architecture This architecture will isolate the demilitarized zone (OMZ) to which hosted public services are attached and InfoSec's publicly accessible resources from their private network Thus, InfoSec will be able to block potential attackers from causing unwanted events inside the company's network. Bob is also responsible for ensuring that a thorough evaluation of the nature of an unexpected event is conducted, including the details on how the event happened and what or whom it might affect.
Anna will create records of the data, reviews, analysis, and reports in order to keep evidence for the purpose of disciplinary and legal action, and use them to prevent future incidents. To do the work accordingly, she should be aware of the company's information security incident management policy beforehand Among others, this policy specifies the type of records to be created, the place where they should be kept, and the format and content that specific record types should have.
Based on this scenario, answer the following question:
Based on his tasks, which team is Bob part of?
- A. Forensics team
- B. Security architecture team
- C. Incident response team
Answer: C
Explanation:
Based on his tasks, Bob is part of the incident response team (IRT) of InfoSec. According to ISO/IEC 27035-
2:2023, the IRT is a team of appropriately skilled and trusted members of an organization that responds to and resolves incidents in a coordinated way1. One of the tasks of the IRT is to conduct an evaluation of the nature of an unexpected event, including the details on how the event happened and what or whom it might affect1.
This is consistent with Bob's responsibility of ensuring that a thorough evaluation of the nature of an unexpected event is conducted. Therefore, Bob belongs to the incident response team.

- A. Business assets
- B. Supporting assets
- C. Primary assets
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27005:2021, there are three types of assets in information security risk management:
primary assets, supporting assets, and business assets. Primary assets are the information and business processes that support the organization's objectives and operations. Supporting assets are the resources that enable the primary assets to function, such as hardware, software, networks, people, facilities, etc. Business assets are the outcomes or benefits that the organization expects from the primary assets, such as reputation, market share, customer satisfaction, etc. (Must be taken from ISO/IEC 27001 : 2022 Lead Implementer resources) In scenario 4, the assets that were identified during risk assessment are hardware, software, and networks, which are examples of supporting assets. These assets are necessary for the information and business processes of TradeB to operate, but they are not the main focus of the risk assessment. The risk assessment should also consider the primary assets and the business assets, as well as the threats and vulnerabilities that affect them, and the potential impacts and likelihood of information security incidents.

NEW QUESTION # 80
An employee of the organization accidentally deleted customers' data stored in the database. What is the impact of this action?
- A. Information is modified in transit
- B. Information is not available to only authorized users
- C. Information is not accessible when required
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, availability is one of the three principles of information security, along with confidentiality and integrity1. Availability means that information is accessible and usable by authorized persons whenever it is needed2. If an employee of the organization accidentally deleted customers' data stored in the database, this would affect the availability of the information, as it would not be accessible when required by the authorized persons, such as the customers themselves, the organization's staff, or other stakeholders. This could result in loss of trust, reputation, or business opportunities for the organization, as well as dissatisfaction or inconvenience for the customers.

Although Colin explains the existing Skyver's information security policies and procedures in an honest and fair manner, she finds some of the issues being discussed too technical and does not fully understand the session. Therefore, in a lot of cases, she requests additional help from the trainer and her colleagues Based on the scenario above, answer the following question:
How should Colin have handled the situation with Lisa?
- A. Promise Lisa that future training and awareness sessions will be easily understandable
- B. Extend the duration of the training and awareness session in order to be able to achieve better results
- C. Deliver training and awareness sessions for employees with the same level of competence needs based on the activities they perform within the company
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard, the organization should determine the necessary competence of persons doing work under its control that affects the performance and effectiveness of the ISMS. The organization should also ensure that these persons are aware of the information security policy, their contribution to the effectiveness of the ISMS, the implications of not conforming with the ISMS requirements, and the benefits of improved information security performance. The organization should also provide information security awareness, education, and training to all employees and, where relevant, contractors and third-party users, as relevant for their job function. The awareness, education, and training programs should be planned, implemented, and maintained according to the needs of the organization and the results of the risk assessment and risk treatment.
Therefore, Colin should have handled the situation with Lisa by delivering training and awareness sessions for employees with the same level of competence needs based on the activities they perform within the company.
This would ensure that the content and the language of the sessions are appropriate and understandable for the target audience, and that the sessions are effective and efficient in achieving the desired learning outcomes.
By doing so, Colin would also avoid wasting time and resources on delivering sessions that are too technical or too basic for some employees, and that do not address their specific information security challenges and responsibilities.

Based on the scenario above, answer the following question:
Which of the following indicates that the confidentiality of information was compromised?
- A. Service interruptions due to the increased number of users
- B. Modification of patients' medical reports
- C. Invasion of patients' privacy
Answer: C
Explanation:
Confidentiality of information is the property that information is not made available or disclosed to unauthorized individuals, entities, or processes.

NEW QUESTION # 86
Del&Co has decided to improve their staff-related controls to prevent incidents. Which of the following is NOT a preventive control related to the Del&Co's staff?
- A. Control of physical access to the equipment
- B. Authentication and authorization
- C. Video cameras
Answer: C
Explanation:
According to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, Annex A.7, the objective of human resource security is to ensure that employees and contractors understand their responsibilities and are suitable for the roles for which they are considered, and to reduce the risk of human error, theft, fraud, or misuse of facilities. The standard specifies eight controls in this domain, which are:
* A.7.1 Prior to employment: This control covers the screening, terms and conditions, and roles and responsibilities of employees and contractors before they are hired.
* A.7.2 During employment: This control covers the awareness, education, and training, disciplinary process, and management responsibilities of employees and contractors during their employment.
* A.7.3 Termination and change of employment: This control covers the return of assets, removal of access rights, and exit interviews of employees and contractors when they leave or change their roles.
The other controls in Annex A are related to other aspects of information security, such as organizational, physical, and technological controls. For example:
* A.9.2 User access management: This control covers the authentication and authorization of users to access information systems and services, based on their roles and responsibilities.
* A.11.1 Secure areas: This control covers the control of physical access to the equipment and information assets, such as locks, alarms, guards, etc.
* A.13.2 Information transfer: This control covers the protection of information during its transfer, such as encryption, digital signatures, secure protocols, etc.
Therefore, video cameras are not a preventive control related to the staff, but rather a physical control related to the equipment and assets. Video cameras can be used to monitor and record the activities of the staff, but they cannot prevent them from causing incidents. They can only help to detect and investigate incidents after they occur.
