CISM study material · question 141 of 1000

A manager considers using a panel of assessors with varied backgrounds. Which two effects does SP 800-39 attribute to that diversity? Choose two.

  1. It may lead to inconsistent risk assessments
  2. It enriches the process and can reduce bias for decision makers
  3. It guarantees a more conservative risk rating
  4. It removes the need for a risk model
Show the answer

Answer: B. It enriches the process and can reduce bias for decision makers
A. It may lead to inconsistent risk assessments

SP 800-39 states diversity of perspective can enrich the assessment process and give decision makers more information with potentially fewer biases, but may also lead to inconsistent assessments requiring defined processes to resolve.
