ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
During a scheduled maintenance window, your team will deploy a vendor-supplied security patch that has already cleared testing and Change Control Board approval. Under change-management guidelines for the production environment, what should be the primary focus when carrying out this deployment?
Maintain continuous business operations by limiting outage time and having a tested rollback plan ready.
Enable verbose debugging to help developers diagnose any latent software defects.
Experiment with alternative security configurations that may be used in future releases.
Conduct full stress tests to discover performance limits under peak load conditions.
The production environment is the organization's live operational space, so the overriding goal during any sanctioned change is to keep business services available to end users. Before the patch is applied, operations must be prepared to minimize or avoid downtime and must have a fully validated rollback or back-out plan in case unforeseen problems arise. Activities such as stress testing, detailed debugging, or experimenting with new settings are valuable but belong in non-production environments; performing them in production would jeopardize service continuity and violate change-management principles.
