Question 780
During an outsourced-services renewal at a logistics group, the IS auditor learns that a certificate name mismatch is bypassed for a production integration. The affected operation supports freight tracking and fleet operations. Delivery commitments and partner data flow through this process. What result would best demonstrate sustained operation of the corrected control?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Correct. Certificate tests reject invalid or revoked identities and renewal records demonstrate reliable trusted service continuity. This is stronger than a manager's verbal assurance because it can be checked against the observed issue that a certificate name mismatch is bypassed for a production integration. The reviewer must verify the remediation period and scope.
