BCS Exam BAPv5 Topic 8 Question 10 Discussion

Actual exam question for BCS's BAPv5 exam
Question #: 10
Topic #: 8
[All BAPv5 Questions]

A business analyst and a project manager are producing a business case for an initiative, which aims to improve the cyber defences of a large financial services provider

They met recently to review progress and made the following notes for the next draft

1. The benefits of cyber security will be hard to describe in quantitative terms, so we will need to describe these qualitatively.

2 We need to make it clear that we have fully explored the solution market, and we have considered a range of approaches to meeting the

objectives of this project.

3. The threat posed to the organisation from cyber attack, and therefore the justification for this project, needs to be clearly articulated

Which THREE sections of a business case will cover these points'?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The parts of the Business Change lifecycle that the business analyst will have supported are Realisation, Design and Implementation. Realisation is the phase where the benefits defined in the benefits plan are evaluated and measured. The business analyst will support this phase by assisting in the evaluation of the benefits (a). Design is the phase where the elements that will support the change are defined and developed. The business analyst will support this phase by leading requirements elicitation and clarification activities (b). Implementation is the phase where the change is embedded into the organisation and its processes. The business analyst will support this phase by delivering coaching, training and ongoing support for any changes to existing processes .

I agree, those three sections make the most sense. Though I'm wondering how they plan to quantify the cyber security benefits - might be a tricky one!

I also think that including options considered in the business case would help demonstrate that we have thoroughly researched and explored different approaches to improving cyber defences.

The key sections here are Options considered, Analysis of costs and benefits, and Risk assessment. This covers exploring the market, quantifying the benefits, and articulating the threat justification.

I agree with Yaeko. It's important to show the financial impact, the current state of cyber defences, and the potential risks involved in the project.
