ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
While finalizing the security assessment report for a federal information system, the assessor confirms that the document already contains an executive summary, test procedures performed, an evidence appendix, risk ratings, and management's proposed corrective actions. Before sending the report for authorizing-official approval, which additional item must be added to properly satisfy final assessment-report requirements?
A control-by-control statement identifying whether each requirement is compliant, non-compliant, or not applicable
A cross-reference that maps tested controls to NIST SP 800-160 systems-engineering principles
The system's confidentiality impact categorization from the original FIPS 199 analysis
A detailed timetable for the next year's continuous-monitoring activities
A complete final assessment or audit report must show the definitive compliance outcome for every control or requirement that was examined. NIST assessment guidance (e.g., SP 800-53A and SP 800-37) specifies that the report include the final status of each control-typically recorded as compliant/satisfied, non-compliant/deficient, or not applicable. This lets the authorizing official understand exactly which controls are fully implemented and which still pose risk. Although design-principle mappings, future monitoring schedules, or the system's impact categorization may be useful, they are not mandatory elements of the final assessment report for documenting final compliance.
