Question 44

Scenario 9: UpNet, a networking company, has been certified against ISO/IEC 27001. It provides network security, virtualization, cloud computing, network hardware, network management software, and networking technologies.

The company's recognition has increased drastically since gaining ISO/IEC 27001 certification. The certification confirmed the maturity of UpNefs operations and its compliance with a widely recognized and accepted standard.

But not everything ended after the certification. UpNet continually reviewed and enhanced its security controls and the overall effectiveness and efficiency of the ISMS by conducting internal audits. The top management was not willing to employ a full-time team of internal auditors, so they decided to outsource the internal audit function. This form of internal audits ensured independence, objectivity, and that they had an advisory role about the continual improvement of the ISMS.

Not long after the initial certification audit, the company created a new department specialized in data and storage products. They offered routers and switches optimized for data centers and software-based networking devices, such as network virtualization and network security appliances. This caused changes to the operations of the other departments already covered in the ISMS certification scope.

Therefore. UpNet initiated a risk assessment process and an internal audit. Following the internal audit result, the company confirmed the effectiveness and efficiency of the existing and new processes and controls.

The top management decided to include the new department in the certification scope since it complies with ISO/IEC 27001 requirements. UpNet announced that it is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and the certification scope encompasses the whole company.

One year after the initial certification audit, the certification body conducted another audit of UpNefs ISMS. This audit aimed to determine the UpNefs ISMS fulfillment of specified ISO/IEC 27001 requirements and ensure that the ISMS is being continually improved. The audit team confirmed that the certified ISMS continues to fulfill

the requirements of the standard. Nonetheless, the new department caused a significant impact on governing the management system. Moreover, the certification body was not informed about any changes. Thus, the UpNefs certification was suspended.

Based on the scenario above, answer the following question:

UpNet outsourced the internal audit function, as provided in scenario 9. Does it impact the internal audit process?

Options:

A.

No, internal audits do not necessarily have to be independent and objective because they have an advisory role

B.

No, because the internal audit process can comprise more than an audit program

C.

Yes, it increases the independence and impartiality of the internal audit because auditors do not have operational roles related to the ISMS

Question 45

After analyzing the audit conclusions, Company X decided to accept the risk related to one of the detected nonconformities. They claimed that no corrective action was necessary; however, their decision was not documented. Is this acceptable?

Options:

A.

Yes, the auditee's management can decide to accept the risk instead of implementing corrective actions and documenting such decision is not necessary

B.

No, the decision of the auditee to accept the risk instead of implementing corrective actions should be justified and documented

C.

No, the auditee must implement corrective actions for all the observations documented during the audit

Question 46

Scenario 2: Knight is an electronics company from Northern California, US that develops video game consoles. Knight has more than 300 employees worldwide. On the

fifth anniversary of their establishment, they have decided to deliver the G-Console, a new generation video game console aimed for worldwide markets. G-Console is

considered to be the ultimate media machine of 2021 which will give the best gaming experience to players. The console pack will include a pair of VR headset, two

games, and other gifts.

Over the years, the company has developed a good reputation by showing integrity, honesty, and respect toward their customers. This good reputation is one of the

reasons why most passionate gamers aim to have Knight's G-console as soon as it is released in the market. Besides being a very customer-oriented company, Knight

also gained wide recognition within the gaming industry because of the developing quality. Their prices are a bit higher than the reasonable standards allow.

Nonetheless, that is not considered an issue for most loyal customers of Knight, as their quality is top-notch.

Being one of the top video game console developers in the world, Knight is also often the center of attention for malicious activities. The company has had an

operational ISMS for over a year. The ISMS scope includes all departments of Knight, except Finance and HR departments.

Recently, a number of Knight's files containing proprietary information were leaked by hackers. Knight's incident response team (IRT) immediately started to analyze

every part of the system and the details of the incident.

The IRT's first suspicion was that Knight's employees used weak passwords and consequently were easily cracked by hackers who gained unauthorized access to their

accounts. However, after carefully investigating the incident, the IRT determined that hackers accessed accounts by capturing the file transfer protocol (FTP) traffic.

FTP is a network protocol for transferring files between accounts. It uses clear text passwords for authentication.

Following the impact of this information security incident and with IRT's suggestion, Knight decided to replace the FTP with Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, so anyone

capturing the traffic can only see encrypted data.

Following these changes, Knight conducted a risk assessment to verify that the implementation of controls had minimized the risk of similar incidents. The results of

the process were approved by the ISMS project manager who claimed that the level of risk after the implementation of new controls was in accordance with the

company's risk acceptance levels.

Based on this scenario, answer the following question:

Based on scenario 2, Knight decided to replace the FTP with Secure Shell (SSH) protocol. Should the Statement of Applicability (SoA) be updated in this case?

Options:

A.

No, the usage of SSH protocol is not an ISO/IEC 27001 requirement and; therefore, does not need to be included in the SoA

B.

No, because the SoA should be updated only when new controls are added, not when old ones are canceled

C.

Yes, the implementation of the new control should be justified and included in the SoA

Question 47

The following are the guidelines to protect your password, except: 

Options:

A.

Don't use the same password for various company system security access

B.

Do not share passwords with anyone

C.

For easy recall, use the same password for company and personal accounts

D.

Change a temporary password on first log-on
