CISM Certified Information Security Manager – Question1115
Which of the following would be the MOST significant security risk in a pharmaceutical institution? A. Compromised customer information B. Unavailability of online transactions C. Theft of security tokens D. Theft of a Research and Development laptop
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation:
The research and development department is usually the most sensitive area of the pharmaceutical organization, Theft of a laptop from this area could result in the disclosure of sensitive formulas and other intellectual property which could represent the greatest security breach. A pharmaceutical organization does not normally have direct contact with end customers and their transactions are not time critical: therefore, compromised customer information and unavailability of online transactions are not the most significant security risks. Theft of security tokens would not be as significant since a pin would still be required for their use.
