PECB ISO-IEC-27001-Lead-Implementer Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Refer to Scenario 4 (FinSecure)

Finsecure is a financial institution based in Finland, providing services to a diverse clientele, encompassing retail banking, corporate banking, wealth management, and digital banking, all tailored to meet the evolving financial needs of individuals and businesses in the region. Recognizing the critical importance of information security in the modern banking landscape, FinSecure has initiated the implementation of an information security management system (ISMS) based on ISO/IEC 27001. To ensure the successful implementation of the ISMS, the top management decided to contract two experts to lead and oversee the ISMS implementation project.

As a primary strategy for implementing the ISMS, the experts chose an approach that emphasizes a swift implementation of the ISMS by initially meeting the minimum requirements of ISO/IEC 27001, followed by continual improvement over time. Additionally, under the guidance of experts, FinSecure opted for a methodological framework, which serves as a structured framework that outlines the high-level stages of the ISMS implementation, the associated activities, and the deliverables without incorporating any specific tools.

The experts conducted a risk assessment, identifying all the supporting assets, which were the most tangible ones. They assessed the potential consequences and likelihood of various risks, determining the level of risks using a methodical approach that involved defining and characterizing the terms and criteria used in the assessment process. These risks were categorized into nonnumerical levels (e g., very low, low. moderate, high, very high). Explanatory notes were thoughtfully crafted to justify assessed values, with the primary goal of enhancing repeatability and reproducibility.

After completing the risk assessment, the experts reviewed a selected number of the security controls from Annex A of ISO/IEC 27001 to determine which ones were applicable to the company's specific context. The decision to implement security controls was justified by the risk assessment results. Based on this review, they drafted the Statement of Applicability (SoA). They focused on treating only the high-risk category particularly addressing unauthorized use of administrator rights and system interruptions due to several hardware failures. To address these issues, they established a new version of the access control policy, implemented controls to manage and control user access, and introduced a control for ICT readiness to ensure business continuity.

Their risk assessment report indicated that if the implemented security controls reduce the risk levels to an acceptable threshold, those risks will be accepted

Question:

Did the experts draft the Statement of Applicability (SoA) in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001?

Infralink is a medium-sized IT consultancy firm headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. It specializes in secure cloud infrastructure, software integration, and data analytics, serving a diverse client base in the healthcare, financial services, and legal sectors, including hospitals, insurance providers, and law firms. To safeguard sensitive client data and support business continuity, Infralink has implemented an information security management system (ISMS) aligned with the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001.

In developing its security architecture, the company adopted services to support centralized user identification and shared authentication mechanisms across its departments. These services also governed the creation and management of credentials within the company. Additionally, Infralink deployed solutions to protect sensitive data in transit and at rest, maintaining confidentiality and integrity across its systems.

In preparation for implementing information security controls, the company ensured the availability of necessary resources, personnel competence, and structured planning. It conducted a cost-benefit analysis, scheduled implementation phases, and prepared documentation and activity checklists for each phase. The intended outcomes were clearly defined to align security controls with business objectives.

Infralink started by implementing several controls from Annex A of ISO/IEC 27001. These included regulating physical and logical access to information and assets in accordance with business and information security requirements, managing the identity life cycle, and establishing procedures for providing, reviewing, modifying, and revoking access rights. However, controls related to the secure allocation and management of authentication information, as well as the establishment of rules or agreements for secure information transfer, have not yet been implemented. During the documentation process, the company ensured that all ISMS-related documents supported traceability by including titles, creation or update dates, author names, and unique reference numbers. Based on the scenario above, answer the following question.

Based on scenario -1. which methodology did AegisCure use to implement its ISMS?

Scenario 6: Skyver offers worldwide shipping of electronic products, including gaming consoles, flat-screen TVs. computers, and printers. In order to ensure information security, the company has decided to implement an information security management system (ISMS) based on the requirements of ISO/IEC 27001.

Colin, the company's best information security expert, decided to hold a training and awareness session for the personnel of the company regarding the information security challenges and other information security-related controls. The session included topics such as Skyver's information security approaches and techniques for mitigating phishing and malware.

One of the participants in the session is Lisa, who works in the HR Department. Although Colin explains the existing Skyver's information security policies and procedures in an honest and fair manner, she finds some of the issues being discussed too technical and does not fully understand the session. Therefore, in a lot of cases, she requests additional help from the trainer and her colleagues

What is the difference between training and awareness? Refer to scenario 6.
