CertiProf I27001F Exam Questions

Clause 4.4 of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 requires the organization to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve an information security management system. This is one of the core statements of the standard and defines the lifecycle expectation for the ISMS. Therefore, the missing word is implement, making option A correct.

=======

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 requires the information security policy to be available as documented information, communicated within the organization, and available to interested parties as appropriate. In practical terms, this means the policy must be communicated to relevant persons in the organization so they understand the direction and expectations related to information security. Among the options provided, the best and correct answer is D, because the policy is intended to be known broadly across the organization, not restricted to a single role or department.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 requires top management to demonstrate leadership and commitment by ensuring that the information security policy and information security objectives are established and are compatible with the strategic direction of the organization. Top management must also integrate ISMS requirements into the organization's processes, ensure resources are available, support relevant roles, and promote continual improvement. The standard does not allow leadership accountability to be replaced by a consultant or a volunteer. Therefore, option A is correct.

=======

The three fundamental properties of information security are confidentiality, integrity, and availability, often referred to as the CIA triad. Confidentiality means information is accessible only to authorized persons or entities. Integrity means safeguarding the accuracy and completeness of information. Availability means information and associated assets are accessible and usable when required. These principles are foundational within ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002. Therefore, option B is correct.

=======

Under ISO/IEC 27001:2022, the information security policy must be appropriate to the purpose of the organization, include information security objectives or provide the framework for setting them, and include a commitment to satisfy applicable requirements and to continual improvement of the ISMS. The standard does not require technical product names, company history, or prior audit results to appear in the policy. Therefore, option C is the best and correct answer.
