ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

During a compliance assessment of a cloud payroll application, you must verify that the read-only service account used by scheduled financial reports cannot alter salary data in the production database. Which test activity provides the most direct evidence that the access-control rule is functioning as intended?

  • Interview the database administrator to confirm the service account is configured as read-only.

  • Run a network vulnerability scan against the database server and analyze the resulting report.

  • Attempt an UPDATE on the salary tables using the reporting service account and verify the operation is denied.

  • Review the documented database role definitions and access-control policy for the reporting account.
