Which business stakeholder is accountable for the integrity of a new information system?

 Accountability for Information System Integrity:

The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is responsible for the overall security of information systems, including their integrity. This accountability extends to implementing and overseeing policies, controls, and processes to safeguard systems.

 Why Not Other Options:

Compliance Officer (B): Focuses on regulatory adherence but does not oversee system integrity directly.

Project Manager (C): Handles project execution but does not have overarching accountability for security.

Board of Directors (D): Provides strategic oversight but does not manage specific system integrity.

 EC-Council CISO Framework:

The CISO’s role is explicitly defined as ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA triad) of systems, which includes accountability for their integrity.
