SCENARIO: A Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) recently had a third party conduct an audit...

Next Step After Implementing Remediation

After remediation activities, the CISO must validate the effectiveness of applied controls to ensure they address the identified gaps and function as intended.

This step involves testing and monitoring the newly implemented measures.

B. Validate resource requirements: Relevant during the planning phase, not post-implementation.

C. Report findings and status: Comes after validating the success of remediation.

D. Review security procedures: May be necessary but follows the validation of controls.
