ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
While drafting a procedure to implement database encryption in a regulated financial institution, you must ensure the document meets CGRC expectations for control documentation. Which content must the procedure include to show clear alignment with the organization's purpose, scope, and risk profile?
A brief narrative summarizing the residual risk that remains after the encryption control is deployed.
A short mission statement explaining why encryption supports the company's overall security vision, without implementation details.
An appendix listing all industry frameworks and regulations that recommend or require encryption measures.
A numbered sequence of implementation and operational steps, each mapped to the responsible role and success criteria.
CGRC guidance (mirroring NIST guidance on security documentation) states that a procedure should translate policy into actionable, repeatable steps that personnel can follow. To demonstrate alignment with organizational context, the procedure must lay out the specific tasks to be performed, identify who is responsible for each step, and state the success or completion criteria. A mission statement (policy‐level content), a catalogue of external standards, or a residual-risk summary do not provide the detailed operational instructions and role assignments that characterize a procedure, so they fail to satisfy the requirement for procedural documentation of an implemented control.
