ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question
Your organization is integrating its customer identity platform with an external cloud-based analytics service. Management wants a formal document that spells out each party's responsibilities for data protection, incident reporting time frames, encryption standards, and audit rights throughout the life of the connection. From a secure systems-of-systems integration perspective, which artifact most directly addresses these requirements?
Establish a bilateral trust contract that enumerates security obligations for both systems.
Create an internal runbook for incident response and routine maintenance tasks.
Publish an interface control document describing API endpoints and message schemas.
Set up a source-code escrow agreement with the analytics service provider.
A trust contract (sometimes called a security addendum to an SLA) is created specifically to define mutual security expectations when two independent systems are linked. It documents items such as data classification, encryption requirements, breach-notification obligations, audit rights, and responsibilities for vulnerability management. An interface control document focuses on technical message formats, not governance. A runbook details operational procedures internal to one organization. A source-code escrow agreement only ensures code availability if the vendor fails; it does not govern day-to-day security duties between parties.
