Qualitative evidence in an audit typically involves observations, interviews, and reviews that provide insights into the processes and compliance through subjective but informed assessments. An interview with information security personnel to validate compliance with the standard requirements is an example of qualitative evidence, where the quality and effectiveness of processes are assessed based on expert judgments rather than measurable metrics.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I feel like the nonconformity reports could also be considered qualitative since they analyze issues.

I think qualitative evidence is more about subjective data, so maybe the interview with the security personnel?

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on the difference between qualitative and quantitative evidence. I'll need to review my notes to make sure I understand the distinction before answering this.

The intrusion-detection test results seem more like quantitative evidence to me, since they involve documented metrics and measurements. I'd go with the interview as the best qualitative example.

I'm not sure about this one. The sample analysis of nonconformity reports seems like it could also be considered qualitative evidence since it's based on reviewing documentation.
