CISA Certified Information Systems Auditor – Question2745

A top-down approach to the development of operational policies will help ensure:

A.
that they are consistent across the organization.
B. that they are implemented as a part of risk assessment.
C. compliance with all policies.
D. that they are reviewed periodically.

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Explanation:
Deriving lower level policies from corporate policies {a top-down approach) aids in ensuring consistency across the organization and consistency with other policies. The bottom-up approach to the development of operational policies is derived as a result of risk assessment. A top-down approach of itself does not ensure compliance and development does not ensure that policies are reviewed.
