ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question

While validating evidence for an access-control audit, you discover that the live firewall rule set differs from the approved baseline. The firewall administrator explains the change was an emergency exception approved verbally last week. Which action best satisfies evidence verification requirements before you document your finding?

  • Review the change-management system for written approval and supporting tickets that authorize the rule change.

  • Accept the administrator's explanation as adequate evidence and proceed with the report.

  • Classify the control as non-compliant immediately because the baseline was not followed.

  • Compare the current firewall rules to industry best practices to decide whether the change is acceptable.
