ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer Questions 31–35 (page: 8)

According to ISO/IEC 27001 controls, why should the use of privileged utility programs be restricted and tightly controlled?

A tech company rapidly expanded its operations over the past few years. Its information system, consisting of servers, databases, and communication tools, is a critical part of its daily operations. However, due to the rapid growth and increased data flow, the company is now facing a saturation of its information system. This saturation has led to slower response times, increased downtime, and difficulty in managing the overwhelming volume of data. In which category does this threat fall into?

Scenario 35: NeuroTrustMed is a leading medical technology company based in Seoul, South Korea. The company specializes in developing AI-assisted neuroimaging solutions used in early diagnosis and treatment planning for neurological disorders. As a data-intensive company handling sensitive patient health records and medical research data, NeuroTrustMed places a strong emphasis on cybersecurity and regulatory compliance. The company has maintained an ISO/IEC 27001-certified ISMS for the past three years. It continuously reviews and improves its ISMS to address emerging threats, support innovation in medical diagnostics, and maintain stakeholder trust. As part of its commitment to continual improvement, NeuroTrustMed actively tracks potential nonconformities, performs root-cause analyses, implements corrective and preventive actions, and ensures all changes are documented and aligned with the company's strategic objectives.
When anew data protection regulation came into effect affecting cross-regional data handling, the information security team conducted a gap assessment between current policies and the new regulation. Then, it updated relevant documentation and processes to meet compliance. Following these revisions, NeuroTrustMed updated the ISMS documentation and added a new entry in the improvement register. The register, maintained in the form of a structured spreadsheet, included a unique change number, a description of the update, and a high-priority classification due to legal compliance, the dates of initiation and completion, and the sign-off by the information security manager. Around the same period, during a scheduled management review, the information security team also identified a pattern of onboarding errors.
While these had not resulted in any data breaches, they posed a risk of unauthorized access. In response, the onboarding procedure was revised and an automated verification step was added to ensure accuracy before access is granted. To understand the underlying cause, the team collected data on the provisioning process. They analyzed process logs, interviewed onboarding staff, and traced access errors back to a misconfigured step in the HR-to-IT handover workflow. The team validated this finding through test cases before implementing any changes. Once confirmed, the information security team documented the nonconformity in the ISMS log. The documentation included a description of the issue, impacted systems, affected users, and a brief risk assessment of potential consequences related to access management. Based on the scenario above, answer the following question.
What type of change caused the ISMS update at NeuroTrustMed?

Scenario 36: Mauve is a logistics and supply chain management company that specializes in warehousing, inventory control, and regional transportation services for retail and pharmaceutical clients. After successfully implementing an information security management system (ISMS) aligned with ISO/IEC 27001, Mauve is now preparing for an ISMS certification audit to formally demonstrate its commitment to information security. To prepare for the audit, the company first informed its employees about the upcoming visit and organized training sessions to ensure they were ready. It also prepared the necessary documented information in advance so that all relevant materials would be readily available when requested by the external auditors. In addition, the company identified staff members with the appropriate knowledge to support the auditors in understanding and evaluating the implemented processes. As part of its preparations, it also carried out an internal review to evaluate its level of readiness. During the planning phase for the audit, Mauve reviewed the list of assigned auditors provided by the certification body. Upon reviewing the list, Mauve identified a potential conflict of interest with one of the auditors, who had previously worked for Mauve's main competitor in the banking industry. To ensure the integrity of the audit process, Mauve refused to undergo the audit until a new audit member was assigned. In response, the certification body acknowledged the conflict of interest and made the necessary adjustments to ensure the audit team's impartiality. After the resolution of this issue, the auditors of Mauve visited the company's site to assess the implementation and effectiveness of its ISMS. They reviewed evidence of conformity with the standard's requirements, evaluated performance monitoring against objectives, and verified compliance with statutory, regulatory, and contractual obligations. The audit also included a review of operational controls, internal audits, management reviews, and top management's responsibility for the company's policies. After the on-site visit, the team prepared the audit conclusions and notified the auditee that no nonconformities had been detected. The audit team leader then issued a recommendation for certification upon filing of corrective action plans. After receiving the recommendation from the audit team leader, the certification body established a committee to decide on certification. The committee included one individual with auditing experience and two other experts from the certification body, none of whom were involved in conducting the audit. Based on the scenario above, answer the following question.
Which audit phase was conducted after the issue with the audit team was resolved?
Based on scenario 36, Mauve required the establishment of a new auditor due to a perceived conflict of interest. Is this acceptable?
