[All CISM Questions]

Which of the following is the PRIMARY benefit of implementing an information security governance framework?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Mitigate is the risk treatment option that has been applied by implementing a firewall in front of the legacy application because it helps to reduce the impact or probability of a risk. Mitigate is a process of taking actions to lessen the negative effects of a risk, such as implementing security controls, policies, or procedures. A firewall is a security device that monitors and filters the network traffic between the legacy application and the external network, blocking or allowing packets based on predefined rules. A firewall helps to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access, exploitation, or attack on the legacy application that cannot be patched. Therefore, mitigate is the correct answer.

Okay, I think I've got it. App Engine seems like the best choice here since it will allow us to easily stage and promote new versions of the application without having to worry about the underlying infrastructure.
