PECB ISO-IEC-27001-Lead-Implementer Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Scenario 8: SunDee is an American biopharmaceutical company, headquartered in California, the US. It specializes in developing novel human therapeutics, with a focus on cardiovascular diseases, oncology, bone health, and inflammation. The company has had an information security management system (ISMS) based on SO/IEC 27001 in place for the past two years. However, it has not monitored or measured the performance and effectiveness of its ISMS and conducted management reviews regularly

Just before the recertification audit, the company decided to conduct an internal audit. It also asked most of their staff to compile the written individual reports of the past two years for their departments. This left the Production Department with less than the optimum workforce, which decreased the company's stock.

Tessa was SunDee's internal auditor. With multiple reports written by 50 different employees, the internal audit process took much longer than planned, was very inconsistent, and had no qualitative measures whatsoever Tessa concluded that SunDee must evaluate the performance of the ISMS adequately. She defined SunDee's negligence of ISMS performance evaluation as a major nonconformity, so she wrote a nonconformity report including the description of the nonconformity, the audit findings, and recommendations. Additionally, Tessa created a new plan which would enable SunDee to resolve these issues and presented it to the top management

How does SunDee's negligence affect the ISMS certificate? Refer to scenario 8.

Scenario 2:

Beauty is a well-established cosmetics company in the beauty industry. The company was founded several decades ago with a passion for creating high-quality skincare, makeup, and personal care products that enhance natural beauty. Over the years, Beauty has built a strong reputation for its innovative product offerings, commitment to customer satisfaction, and dedication to ethical and sustainable business practices.

In response to the rapidly evolving landscape of consumer shopping habits, Beauty transitioned from traditional retail to an e-commerce model. To initiate this strategy, Beauty conducted a comprehensive information security risk assessment, analyzing potential threats and vulnerabilities associated with its new e-commerce venture, aligned with its business strategy and objectives.

Concerning the identified risks, the company implemented several information security controls. All employees were required to sign confidentiality agreements to emphasize the importance of protecting sensitive customer data. The company thoroughly reviewed user access rights, ensuring only authorized personnel could access sensitive information. In addition, since the company stores valuable products and unique formulas in the warehouse, it installed alarm systems and surveillance cameras with real-time alerts to prevent any potential act of vandalism.

After a while, the information security team analyzed the audit logs to monitor and track activities across the newly implemented security controls. Upon investigating and analyzing the audit logs, it was discovered that an attacker had accessed the system due to out-of-date anti-malware software, exposing customers' sensitive information, including names and home addresses. Following this, the IT team replaced the anti-malware software with a new one capable of automatically removing malicious code in case of similar incidents. The new software was installed on all workstations and regularly updated with the latest malware definitions, with an automatic update feature enabled. An authentication process requiring user identification and a password was also implemented to access sensitive information.

During the investigation, Maya, the information security manager of Beauty, found that information security responsibilities in job descriptions were not clearly defined, for which the company took immediate action. Recognizing that their e-commerce operations would have a global reach, Beauty diligently researched and complied with the industry's legal, statutory, regulatory, and contractual requirements. It considered international and local regulations, including data privacy laws, consumer protection acts, and global trade agreements.

To meet these requirements, Beauty invested in legal counsel and compliance experts who continuously monitored and ensured the company's compliance with legal standards in every market they operated in. Additionally, Beauty conducted multiple information security awareness sessions for the IT team and other employees with access to confidential information, emphasizing the importance of system and network security.

Based on scenario 2, what type of controls did Beauty use during incident investigation?

Scenario 7: CyTekShield

CyTekShield based in Dublin. Ireland, is a cybersecurity consulting provider specializing in digital risk management and enterprise security solutions. After facing multiple security incidents. CyberTekShield formed expanded its information security team by bringing in Sadie and Niamh as part of the team. This team is structured into three key divisions: incident response, security architecture and forensics

Sadie will separate the demilitarized zone from CyTekShield's private network and publicly accessible resources, as part of implementing a screened subnet network architecture. In addition, Sadie will carry out comprehensive evaluations of any unexpected incidents, analyzing their causes and assessing their potential impact. She also developed security strategies and policies. Whereas Niamh. a specialized expert in forensic investigations, will be responsible for creating records of different data for evidence purposes To do this effectively, she first reviewed the company's information security incident management policy, which outlines the types of records to be created, their storage location, and the required format and content for specific record types.

To support the process of handling of evidence related to information security events. CyTekShield has established internal procedures. These procedures ensure that evidence is properly identified, collected, and preserved within the company CyTekShield's procedures specify how to handle records in various storage mediums, ensuring that all evidence is safeguarded in its original state, whether the devices are powered on or off.

As part of CyTekShield's initiative to strengthen information security measures, Niamh will conduct information security risk assessments only when significant changes are proposed and will document the results of these risk assessments Upon completion of the risk assessment process, Niamh is responsible to develop and implement a plan for treating information security risks and document the risk treatment results.
