Which of the following best describes how often an organization should review its information security policies to ensure they remain effective over time?
At least periodically (for example, annually) and whenever significant changes in risks, technology, or business processes occur.
Only after a merger or acquisition that changes the corporate structure.
On an ad hoc basis, but only after a security incident highlights a gap.
Only once, when the policy is first published, because future changes are unlikely.
Information security policies should undergo a recurring review-commonly at least once per year-and be updated whenever significant changes in technology, regulations, threats, or business processes occur. This continuous monitoring and revision ensure the policies remain aligned with the evolving risk landscape. Relying on a single, one-time review or waiting only for major events leaves the organization exposed to new or emerging threats.
