Preview — answers shown1. A candidate is studying the new controls introduced in ISO/IEC 27002:2022. Which of the following is one of the 11 new controls? (Select one!)
Explanation
ISO/IEC 27002:2022 introduced 11 new controls, including Threat intelligence (5.7), Information security for use of cloud services (5.23), and Data masking (8.11). Asset management (5.9) is a merged control, while Access control (5.15) and Backup (8.13) are updated or renamed controls from the previous edition, not new additions.
2. The ISMS team proposes a change to the access control procedure to reduce administrative overhead. Before implementation, they must evaluate the potential impact on security. This evaluation is part of which PDCA phase? (Select one!)
Explanation
The 'Plan' phase involves establishing objectives, processes, and resources, as well as assessing risks and opportunities associated with changes. Evaluating the impact of a proposed change before implementation is a planning activity to ensure the change aligns with ISMS objectives and does not introduce unacceptable risks.
3. After implementing controls to treat identified risks, some risk remains. The organization acknowledges that it is impossible to eliminate all risk. This remaining risk is referred to as: (Select one!)
Explanation
Residual risk is the risk that remains after risk treatment measures (controls) have been applied. Inherent risk is the risk before controls, transferred risk is shared with another party, and avoided risk is eliminated by stopping the activity. Residual risk must be accepted by management.
4. Following a ransomware attack, the IT team at TechCorp restores systems from backups and applies patches to close the exploited vulnerability. These actions are primarily classified as which type of control? (Select one!)
Explanation
Corrective controls aim to restore normal operations and mitigate damage after an incident has occurred. Restoring from backups and patching vulnerabilities are classic examples of corrective actions. Preventive controls would have been the patches applied before the attack, while detective controls would have been the alerts that identified the ransomware activity.
5. An organization is updating its Statement of Applicability (SoA) to reflect ISO/IEC 27002:2022. Which annex in ISO/IEC 27002:2022 provides the correspondence between controls in the 2022 edition and the previous editions? (Select one!)
Explanation
Annex B of ISO/IEC 27002:2022 provides the correspondence (mapping and reverse mapping) between controls in the 2022 edition and the previous editions (2013). This is essential for organizations updating their SoA and risk treatment plans. Annex A provides guidance on the use of attributes.
