ISC2 CISSP Practice Question

A security assessment team, during a review of a critical manufacturing control system, identified several high-risk vulnerabilities. The system cannot be immediately patched due to strict operational constraints that prohibit downtime. As the security lead, when documenting these findings for management in the final report, what is the BEST approach to handling these documented exceptions?

  • Document the vulnerabilities with compensating controls and a risk acceptance timeframe

  • Mark the vulnerabilities as false positives to clear them from the report

  • Document the vulnerabilities and outline interim measures since they are not fixed currently

  • Recommend scheduling a system shutdown once patches can be applied
