CISM study material · question 61 of 1000
Policies that were entirely adequate at approval are found three years later to be inadequate although nothing was formally changed. Which cause does NIST specifically name alongside changed mission and technology?
Show the answer
Answer: A. Deterioration in the degree of compliance
SP 800-100 lists falling compliance alongside altered missions, threats, environments and technology as reasons a once-adequate policy stops working. Nothing has to be formally rewritten for a policy to go stale.
