Isaca CISA Practice Test 65

Question 640

During an outsourced-services renewal at a logistics group, the IS auditor learns that a restore test verifies files but not application consistency or client functionality. The affected operation supports freight tracking and fleet operations. Delivery commitments and partner data flow through this process. Which consequence would MOST directly follow if this weakness remains unresolved?

  1. Hidden or inaccurate infrastructure dependencies may create single points of failure and impede impact analysis.
  2. Successful backup jobs may not provide usable, secure or timely recovery under realistic failures or attacks.
  3. Disaster recovery claims may fail when infrastructure, credentials, dependencies or business acceptance are omitted from tests.
  4. Uncontrolled scheduling, retry and job monitoring can cause incomplete, duplicate or unreported processing.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Correct. Successful backup jobs may not provide usable, secure or timely recovery under realistic failures or attacks. The described exception is: a restore test verifies files but not application consistency or client functionality. This risk ties the observation to the business significance of freight tracking and fleet operations, rather than treating management's claim as independent assurance.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Hidden or inaccurate infrastructure dependencies may create single points of failure and impede impact analysis. Acceptance here depends on observing evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not only that test.

C:

Disaster recovery claims may fail when infrastructure, credentials, dependencies or business acceptance are omitted from tests. The relevant success criterion is evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion; this measures a different function.

D:

Uncontrolled scheduling, retry and job monitoring can cause incomplete, duplicate or unreported processing. That result could pass without demonstrating evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 641

During an outsourced-services renewal at a logistics group, the IS auditor learns that a restore test verifies files but not application consistency or client functionality. The affected operation supports freight tracking and fleet operations. Delivery commitments and partner data flow through this process. Which audit procedure would provide the MOST DIRECT evidence about this control?

  1. Conduct an approved end-to-end site-failure rehearsal using current runbooks, dependencies and measured recovery times.
  2. Reconcile procurement and inventory records to physical custody, license entitlements and sanitization or disposal records.
  3. Inspect backup coverage, isolation, retention and periodic end-to-end restores against business RPO and RTO requirements.
  4. Inspect job definitions and dependencies, simulate retries and failures, and trace scheduler logs to reconciled business totals.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Correct. Inspect backup coverage, isolation, retention and periodic end-to-end restores against business RPO and RTO requirements. The procedure directly tests the reported condition that a restore test verifies files but not application consistency or client functionality. A defensible IS audit conclusion requires relevant and reliable evidence from the actual control population and period.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. It does not establish the requested evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion outcome.

B:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The relevant success criterion is evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion; this measures a different function.

D:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. Acceptance here depends on observing evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not only that test.

Question 642

During an outsourced-services renewal at a logistics group, the IS auditor learns that a restore test verifies files but not application consistency or client functionality. The affected operation supports freight tracking and fleet operations. Delivery commitments and partner data flow through this process. Which follow-up result would BEST substantiate that the remediation operates effectively?

  1. Verified inventory and dependency tests identify the critical components and their failover or support owners.
  2. Recorded restore exercises recover consistent business transactions from protected copies within approved time and loss limits.
  3. A timed restore or failover test confirms users can perform critical transactions with approved RTO and RPO outcomes.
  4. Controlled test runs and monitored production samples show correct sequencing, idempotent retries and timely failure escalation.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Correct. Recorded restore exercises recover consistent business transactions from protected copies within approved time and loss limits. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that a restore test verifies files but not application consistency or client functionality. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. The relevant success criterion is evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion; this measures a different function.

C:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. Acceptance here depends on observing evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not only that test.

D:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. It does not establish the requested evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion outcome.

Question 643

During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the continuity plan names responders who left the company last year. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. Which weakness is MOST material to the control objective in this situation?

  1. Continuity plans may be unusable under actual disruption because people, procedures and dependencies were not rehearsed.
  2. Uncontrolled asset acquisition, custody or disposal can create cost, compliance and data exposure.
  3. Uncontrolled user-managed systems can bypass approved security, integrity, continuity and change controls.
  4. Disaster recovery claims may fail when infrastructure, credentials, dependencies or business acceptance are omitted from tests.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Continuity plans may be unusable under actual disruption because people, procedures and dependencies were not rehearsed. The described exception is: the continuity plan names responders who left the company last year. This risk ties the observation to the business significance of patient-care scheduling and claims processing, rather than treating management's claim as independent assurance.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Uncontrolled asset acquisition, custody or disposal can create cost, compliance and data exposure. The configuration must instead establish evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Uncontrolled user-managed systems can bypass approved security, integrity, continuity and change controls. The evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion prerequisite remains unaddressed.

D:

Disaster recovery claims may fail when infrastructure, credentials, dependencies or business acceptance are omitted from tests. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 644

During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the continuity plan names responders who left the company last year. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. Which audit procedure would MOST directly validate the suspected control gap?

  1. Inspect job definitions and dependencies, simulate retries and failures, and trace scheduler logs to reconciled business totals.
  2. Inventory critical end-user applications and test ownership, access, versioning, calculations and backup arrangements.
  3. Conduct an approved end-to-end site-failure rehearsal using current runbooks, dependencies and measured recovery times.
  4. Review plan currency, contact paths, alternate processes and cross-party exercises with measurable success criteria.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Correct. Review plan currency, contact paths, alternate processes and cross-party exercises with measurable success criteria. The procedure directly tests the reported condition that the continuity plan names responders who left the company last year. A defensible IS audit conclusion requires relevant and reliable evidence from the actual control population and period.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The configuration must instead establish evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

B:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion prerequisite remains unaddressed.

C:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 645

During a routine controls assessment at a regional hospital, the IS auditor learns that the continuity plan names responders who left the company last year. The affected operation supports patient-care scheduling and claims processing. Healthcare service continuity and protected records are at stake. What would an auditor MOST want to see before accepting the issue as remediated?

  1. Documented EUC ownership and sampled access, calculation review and recovery tests demonstrate proportionate controls.
  2. A timed restore or failover test confirms users can perform critical transactions with approved RTO and RPO outcomes.
  3. An accurate lifecycle inventory and sampled disposal records prove accountable custody, licensed use and validated data removal.
  4. Observed exercises show accountable teams can activate workable alternate operations and communicate within approved thresholds.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Correct. Observed exercises show accountable teams can activate workable alternate operations and communicate within approved thresholds. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that the continuity plan names responders who left the company last year. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. The evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion prerequisite remains unaddressed.

B:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. That change would not implement evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 646

During a payment-platform modernization at a payment clearing organization, the IS auditor learns that manual workarounds cannot process the planned volume during a regional outage. The affected operation supports merchant settlement and reconciliation. Finance and settlement integrity depend on this operation. What is the MOST defensible risk conclusion from the observed condition?

  1. Continuity plans may be unusable under actual disruption because people, procedures and dependencies were not rehearsed.
  2. Available infrastructure may not deliver committed business service capacity under peak load or shared failures.
  3. Hidden or inaccurate infrastructure dependencies may create single points of failure and impede impact analysis.
  4. Uncontrolled asset acquisition, custody or disposal can create cost, compliance and data exposure.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Continuity plans may be unusable under actual disruption because people, procedures and dependencies were not rehearsed. The described exception is: manual workarounds cannot process the planned volume during a regional outage. This risk ties the observation to the business significance of merchant settlement and reconciliation, rather than treating management's claim as independent assurance.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Available infrastructure may not deliver committed business service capacity under peak load or shared failures. It does not retain the evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion control over time.

C:

Hidden or inaccurate infrastructure dependencies may create single points of failure and impede impact analysis. Recurrence here depends on evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not this safeguard.

D:

Uncontrolled asset acquisition, custody or disposal can create cost, compliance and data exposure. That protection can exist while evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion is still missing.

Question 647

During a payment-platform modernization at a payment clearing organization, the IS auditor learns that manual workarounds cannot process the planned volume during a regional outage. The affected operation supports merchant settlement and reconciliation. Finance and settlement integrity depend on this operation. Which fieldwork step should the auditor prioritize to test the issue?

  1. Review plan currency, contact paths, alternate processes and cross-party exercises with measurable success criteria.
  2. Inspect job definitions and dependencies, simulate retries and failures, and trace scheduler logs to reconciled business totals.
  3. Compare service-level performance under representative workload, forecast trends and test plausible component failures.
  4. Trace a sample of critical business services to actual compute, network, storage and supporting service components.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Correct. Review plan currency, contact paths, alternate processes and cross-party exercises with measurable success criteria. The procedure directly tests the reported condition that manual workarounds cannot process the planned volume during a regional outage. A defensible IS audit conclusion requires relevant and reliable evidence from the actual control population and period.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The configuration must instead establish evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

C:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. The evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion prerequisite remains unaddressed.

D:

Not the most direct fieldwork procedure for these facts. It changes a different feature than evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion.

Question 648

During a payment-platform modernization at a payment clearing organization, the IS auditor learns that manual workarounds cannot process the planned volume during a regional outage. The affected operation supports merchant settlement and reconciliation. Finance and settlement integrity depend on this operation. Which observed evidence is MOST persuasive for a controlled audit follow-up?

  1. An accurate lifecycle inventory and sampled disposal records prove accountable custody, licensed use and validated data removal.
  2. End-to-end capacity and availability tests meet business service thresholds with demonstrated expansion and failure headroom.
  3. Observed exercises show accountable teams can activate workable alternate operations and communicate within approved thresholds.
  4. Verified inventory and dependency tests identify the critical components and their failover or support owners.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Correct. Observed exercises show accountable teams can activate workable alternate operations and communicate within approved thresholds. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that manual workarounds cannot process the planned volume during a regional outage. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not the strongest closure evidence for this case. Acceptance here depends on observing evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not only that test.

Question 649

During a regulatory readiness review at a municipal government, the IS auditor learns that a supplier dependency is omitted from the business continuity exercise. The affected operation supports citizen service accounts and public records. Public accountability and essential service access are affected. Which risk statement is BEST supported by the recorded exception?

  1. Uncontrolled asset acquisition, custody or disposal can create cost, compliance and data exposure.
  2. Interfaces can silently drop, duplicate or alter business data without adequate completeness and integrity checks.
  3. Continuity plans may be unusable under actual disruption because people, procedures and dependencies were not rehearsed.
  4. Disaster recovery claims may fail when infrastructure, credentials, dependencies or business acceptance are omitted from tests.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Correct. Continuity plans may be unusable under actual disruption because people, procedures and dependencies were not rehearsed. The described exception is: a supplier dependency is omitted from the business continuity exercise. This risk ties the observation to the business significance of citizen service accounts and public records, rather than treating management's claim as independent assurance.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Uncontrolled asset acquisition, custody or disposal can create cost, compliance and data exposure. That protection can exist while evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion is still missing.

B:

Interfaces can silently drop, duplicate or alter business data without adequate completeness and integrity checks. It protects a different risk than the evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion requirement.

D:

Disaster recovery claims may fail when infrastructure, credentials, dependencies or business acceptance are omitted from tests. Recurrence here depends on evidence appropriate to the audit conclusion, not this safeguard.

Question 650

During a regulatory readiness review at a municipal government, the IS auditor learns that a supplier dependency is omitted from the business continuity exercise. The affected operation supports citizen service accounts and public records. Public accountability and essential service access are affected. During fieldwork, what is the BEST focused test of this condition?

  1. Trace sample transactions end to end and reconcile control totals, acknowledgements and retry or error queues.
  2. Inspect job definitions and dependencies, simulate retries and failures, and trace scheduler logs to reconciled business totals.
  3. Conduct an approved end-to-end site-failure rehearsal using current runbooks, dependencies and measured recovery times.
  4. Review plan currency, contact paths, alternate processes and cross-party exercises with measurable success criteria.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Correct. Review plan currency, contact paths, alternate processes and cross-party exercises with measurable success criteria. The procedure directly tests the reported condition that a supplier dependency is omitted from the business continuity exercise.
