ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question
Your company is drafting an audit plan for a soon-to-be-signed SaaS contract. Besides internal audit and IT security, which additional stakeholder must be formally involved before the agreement is executed to ensure right-to-audit clauses, discovery hold requirements, and cross-border data transfer restrictions are enforceable during future audits?
The human resources department that will train users on the new system
The procurement officer who negotiated pricing and billing terms
The organization's legal counsel responsible for contract review
The application development team that will integrate with the SaaS API
Legal or corporate counsel must review the SaaS agreement before signature. Legal teams understand jurisdictional issues, chain-of-custody rules for eDiscovery, and how to word right-to-audit provisions so they will be enforceable in the provider's venue. If they are consulted only after the contract is in force, necessary language may be missing and auditors could later be denied access or evidence, creating compliance exposure. While security, procurement, and application owners are important, none of them can provide the authoritative legal analysis and contract wording needed to protect audit rights across jurisdictions.
