ISC2 Governance, Risk and Compliance (CGRC) Practice Question
Your organization is staffing control-implementation tasks for a public-cloud CRM in accordance with NIST SP 800-53. How should an engineer's prior hands-on experience with a particular control influence the final assignment decision?
It should be weighed alongside segregation-of-duties, independence, and other risk considerations rather than treated as the single overriding criterion.
It is unnecessary because NIST only requires that all implementers receive generic annual awareness training.
It should be the top priority; the most experienced person must always receive the task regardless of other staffing concerns.
It can be offset if the engineer's manager approves the assignment, making technical experience optional.
NIST SP 800-53 expects organizations to ensure that personnel assigned to implement controls are competent, trained, and authorized, but it also requires consideration of segregation of duties, independence, and avoidance of conflicts of interest. Therefore, an individual's hands-on experience with a control is an important criterion, yet it must be balanced with these additional factors; technical skill alone cannot override requirements for proper checks and balances. Options suggesting that technical experience is either unnecessary or the sole determinant conflict with NIST guidance, as does the idea that management approval can substitute for the needed balance of competence and independence.
