APMG-International ISO-IEC-27001-Foundation Exam - Topic 3 Question 8 Discussion

Actual exam question for APMG-International's ISO-IEC-27001-Foundation exam
Question #: 8
Topic #: 3
[All ISO-IEC-27001-Foundation Questions]

Which trend in information security performance is required to be considered during a management review of the ISMS?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Clause 9.3.2 (Management Review Inputs) states that management reviews shall include:

''c) information on the information security performance, including trends in: (1) nonconformities and corrective actions; (2) monitoring and measurement results; (3) audit results; and (4) fulfilment of information security objectives.''

This makes achievement of information security objectives (option A) a required trend to be considered. While external/internal requirements (C) and continual improvement opportunities (D) are also part of management review inputs, they are not specifically listed under ''trends in performance.'' Option B is outside the direct requirement.

Thus, the verified answer is A.
