ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

During a scheduled baseline review, storage administrators propose reducing security log retention on production servers from 90 days to 30 days to relieve disk-space pressure. As the security control assessor, what is the most appropriate first step to evaluate the impact of this baseline revision?

  • Submit a change request to the Change Control Board to obtain formal approval for the new setting.

  • Review legal, regulatory, and internal policy requirements to verify that a 30-day retention period remains compliant.

  • Deploy the 30-day retention configuration in the production environment to validate that logging continues to function.

  • Archive existing logs off-site and purge local log files to free disk space before the retention change takes effect.
